I am the UWC coordinator for the Absa iNkanyezi IT Audit Academy, starting in 2022. The audit academy allowed students to learn the necessary skills for IT Auditing. A certificate ceremony was organised for all students who had successfully completed the course. The event provided our industry partners with the opportunity to recruit graduates with the right skills and more employment opportunities for our students.
I am also the coordinator of the programme that is run as a collaboration between UWC, Sanlam and Women in Tech. This is a dynamic mentoring and coaching programme that equips female Information Systems students with valuable work and life skills and gives them a confidence boost as they prepare to start or continue to grow their careers. During the programme, students learn from a global network of women in technology who will cover topics like Confidence building, Workplace readiness, Networking, Interview skills, Presentation skills, Managing your personal brand and Entrepreneurial skills.
Given the need for technical and mobile application skills, students were encouraged to participate in the MTN App Academy and the hackathon.
