AITI Extension Course at JKUAT, Kenya

by mgordon

Samuel Kamochu, a distinguished graduate of our 2009 Kenya program, has spearheaded an initiative to offer an AITI-like course at JKUAT.  The course will employ AITI’s Mobile Application Development curriculum, and it will be structured in much the same way as our 2009 Kenya course:

  • Intermediate Java
  • SMS Services
  • J2ME
  • Android
  • Mobile Application Competition

The course will be instructed by Samuel, a JKUAT alum, and two other JKUAT graduates:  Isaac Oteyo and Andrew Kinai.  The instructors have already selected their students based on  recommendations from JKUAT faculty.  30 second-year JKUAT students are enrolled.  The course will be offered 3 days per week for 2 hours a day, 1 hour for lecture and 1 hour for lab time.  The course begins October 15th.

AITI is very pleased to support extension programs such as this one.  We will help in any way we can.  We will keep you updated on the progress of the course.
