Johannesburg, 17 Sep 2009

mySolutions is proud to announce the launch of Ithuta. Ithuta [Sapedi: he who teaches himself or is an autodidact] is a free online training tool that is being offered to the public to help rectify the huge lack of IT expertise within southern Africa.

The tool enables ambitious and innovative minds to learn the fundamentals and history of IT, right up until the latest technologies employed in the industry.

Ithuta is certified by Cyber Slash/Support, which offers leading support worldwide for clients such as Sun Microsystems, Alcatel and Trendnet. Ithuta is of such a calibre that users who have completed the training course can confidently go out into the market and offer basic IT services to the end-user.

mySolutions' unique support structure provides budding new entrepreneurs with the expertise to offer services rivalled by larger support companies. Further, the underlying security of being able to draw on our many years' experience will ensures they have the ability to handle any situation they might face on the end-user's side.

Ithuta aims at enabling members of the public to take the initiative and empower themselves with the essential skills required to understand the evolution of the PC and how and why it now plays a major part in most of our lives. It will also teach the applicant the necessary know-how to allow them to lay the first cornerstone of a new business, giving them the necessary skills to handle the majority of the end-users' problems.

As the tool is online, both the course as well as the final exam can be taken anywhere within South Africa. As the PC or laptop is becoming more accessible to more and more people, the need for IT skills is becoming greater - and not just in the higher income brackets or urban areas.

This is where Ithuta plans to have its greatest impact by servicing those parts of South Africa that are not situated in built-up metropolitan areas, but rather a truly countrywide solution. Ithuta will empower people and not only provide them with the knowledge for personal growth, but also supply the tools for the nation to seize an opportunity to supply a premium and excellent service to an untapped market.

As the number of users increases in South Africa, so will the amount of support needed for those users grow. We cannot and should not only rely on the larger institutions to offer the training needed for the support. It is for this reason that mySolutions is offering this tool promote personal empowerment in this field of industry.

It is part of mySolutions culture to give back to the community and support the growth of innovators. By guaranteeing that Ithuta is based on solid learning materials and good practice, it will ensure the success of those candidates, who complete the course.
