We offer a basic introduction to computers and ICTs, using multimedia CD-ROM's and live internet lessons, for youth studying at schools located within the Greater Manila Region. Schools are contacted by our team to schedule a training and then our team carries out the onsite visit usually lasting a full day.
A small fee is charged to each school however we also work for a number of schools that can't afford a training visit. These free trainings are supported by our income generating activities such as cellphone repair, cellphone recharges, cellphone/SMS services and food sales.
