Billbrain Technologies Ltd. successfully completed Project KUHA – Train the Trainers, an ICT capacity-building initiative aimed at equipping primary school teachers with practical information technology skills in selected host districts of Uganda’s oil and gas development areas in the Uganda’s Albertine Graben.
The project was implemented for Tullow Oil Uganda in partnership with the TGSS Alumni Group – Uganda (TAGU) and focused on strengthening teaching capacity in government-funded primary schools located within Tullow Oil’s operational areas of Buliisa and Kaiso-Tonya.
Empowering Teachers Through ICT Skills
Project KUHA was designed to enhance the ability of teachers to effectively integrate ICT into teaching and learning processes, while also improving basic digital literacy within schools affected by oil and gas sector developments.
The training targeted teachers from four beneficiary schools:
-
Buliisa Primary School
-
Kaiso Primary School
-
Kyehoro Primary School
-
Ndandamire Nursery and Primary School
Through a Train-the-Trainer approach, participating teachers were equipped with foundational IT skills that can be cascaded to fellow teachers and learners, ensuring long-term impact beyond the training period.
Timely and Successful Implementation
Project KUHA was implemented and completed within the stipulated timeframe. The project commenced with a preliminary field visit on 27th May 2019, followed by the start of training activities on 10th June 2019. All training sessions were successfully concluded on 28th June 2019, with the project reaching formal completion on 1st July 2019.
The structured rollout ensured effective engagement with beneficiary schools and allowed the training team to tailor sessions to the specific needs and contexts of each institution.
Supporting Education in Host Communities
By building ICT capacity among teachers, Project KUHA contributes to improved learning outcomes, enhanced classroom delivery, and increased exposure of learners to digital skills at an early age. The initiative aligns with broader efforts to ensure that host communities benefit meaningfully from oil and gas sector developments through education and skills development.
Appreciation and Commitment
Billbrain Technologies Ltd. appreciates Tullow Oil Uganda for the opportunity to implement Project KUHA and acknowledges the valuable collaboration with TGSS Alumni Group – Uganda (TAGU). We also thank the participating schools and teachers for their cooperation and commitment throughout the training.
