The Enugu State Government, in partnership with Chinese firm Haier Factory in Enugu, has launched a digital training programme for secondary school students across the state.
The training aimed at equipping them with practical technological skills for self-reliance and entrepreneurship after graduation.
The programme, tagged “Enugu-Haier Joint School-Enterprise Cooperation Training Programme (JSECT-P)”, was organised by the State Ministry of Education in collaboration with Haier Factory on Tuesday in Enugu.
Speaking at the event, the State Commissioner for Education, Ndubueze Mbah, said the initiative was part of the state government’s broader reforms to transform the education sector through innovation and experiential learning.
Mr Mbah, represented by the Permanent Secretary in the ministry, Nkechi Ewoh, said the establishment of the digital factory was intended to deepen experiential learning from basic to post-basic education levels.
