Telbru opens ICT Academy

Telbru opened their ICT-based Academy in Bangladesh, hoping it will support the Brunei Vision 2035 of creating a platform of excellence in human capital, reports BruDirect.

The soft unveiling of the ICT Leadership and Management Academy has given a new boost for the nation's human capital development, Telbru said in a statement.

"It will undoubtedly create a new platform for excellence in the enhancement of human resources especially in the ICT industry," the statement reads.

Dorothy Gordon, director-general of the Kofi Annan Centre of Excellence (KACE), has challenged local ICT experts in Ghana to adopt systems that would protect their products against what she called “technology imperialism”, according to The Ghanaian Times.

Technology imperialism, she says, is the situation where the western world and other developed states tend to control the development of ICT and its products to the detriment of developing countries.

Gordon was speaking in Accra at a seminar organised by the KACE to educate players in the industry, including the media, on how the adoption of ICT could improve efficiency in health delivery under the National Health Intelligence Service.
