Speaking about the new initiative, Chief Executive of Vodafone Ghana, Yolanda Cuba had a few words. He said “We are on a crucial path to ensure the digital transformation sweeping the world leaves no one behind in Ghana, no matter where they may be.”
The maiden session of this training, which happens to be the second stage in the Vodafone National Coding Initiative will span a whole week and will commence on the 17th of November in Takoradi.
“This program has been designed to empower individuals with basic knowledge in coding including topics such as business management and digital marketing to enable them monetize their skills. There is an enormous demand out there for people with coding skills and we want them to take advantage of the opportunities.” The CEO further stressed.

Vodafone had earlier launched a National Coding Program 3 months back which is in accord with the Company’s strategy of utilizing technology when topics like the enhancement of education and promotion of youth employment are brought to the fore.
The program, which is aimed at training 10,000 young minds in coding and ICT in just five years is well on its way, as over 150 people have immensely benefited from the Program since launch.
