The centre is to facilitate the training of ICT skills to interested individuals to make them more suitable for the job market which now strives on ICT. It would also provide opportunity for students to access wide range of information on the internet to boost their knowledge acquisition in various skills of study. As a good cost sharing skills, the district assembly constructed the structure while the RLG communication provided 20 computers and mobile phone repair machine. Speaking to Ghanadistricts.com, George Rabbak the RLG representative who manages the centre disclosed that about 200 people would be trained this year under the National Youth Employment Programme (NYEP) in computer soft and hardware, mobile phone repairs, electronics and managerial skills.
