Project Planning |
Due to a rapid increase in learner numbers and the plans for introducing further projects, there is and urgent need for upgrading and extension of facilities.
During our first 14 years of operations, income was generated by levying tuition fees from students. Due to poverty in the communities we serve, these fees often had to be subsidized are waived altogether
Development of facilities and accessibility of programmes have been severely hampered by our dependence on income derived from tuition fees. The portion of our target population most in need our services, can least afford the cost involved.
It is our objective to secure external sponsorship both for the improvement and extension of facilities and for subsidizing of operational costs, so as to lower tuition fees. This will ensure accessibility to the poorest of the poor.
