Transferring New Technology (TNT) is a project designed to develop a corps of host country computer trainers skilled in information transfer at the grassroots level.
Working with the host country’s government, EMF recruits candidates for a training of trainers program conducted every six months. Successful candidates must show an ability to teach the EMF curriculum in a community identified through the Computers for the World program. Computer education is combined with AIDS sensibilizations, general sanitation and student counseling instruction.
Upon course completion, TNT graduates are provided with lesson plans, necessary classroom equipment and resources for use at site. They will then be assigned to a community identified through the Computers for the World project where EMF will provide a monthly stipend and the community will provide their housing. TNT thus serves as a training ground for developing professionals by giving them the tools and experience necessary to advance in their careers. EMF plans to offer continuing education and certification for qualified TNT graduates.
Soon we will display information here concerning our candidates and curriculum, please return.
