Dear GKD Members, A friend of mine, Professor Vesper Owei of George Washington University, is in the process of organizing a training seminar for Nigerian Local Government officials.
It is a 3 week session. I was working with him gathering information on what would be the most appropriate ICT topics for rural local government officials, most of whom have no formal training in basic computer skills, as the traditional occupation of most people in their community is farming. The challenge is to design an ICT training program for the leadership of the local govenment in a way that exposes them to the benefits ICT can have on the larger rural community. So my question is: Has anyone on this List worked on an IT training curriculum for a rural population's local government? I am curious about the list of topics covered. I will appreciate any inputs.
