Digital Literacy

Digital literacy is no longer just for offices in Nairobi—it's a practical skill opening doors in every corner of Kenya, from the jua kali sheds to county offices, busy matatu stages, farms, hotels, and beyond. Mastering these computer basics means you’ll not only fit into the modern workplace, but you’ll also stand out, ready to thrive wherever technology is used.

• County Government Offices: Every county employs clerks, record managers, and admin assistants who need to process documents, manage files, and communicate using computers.
• Jua Kali Sector: Artisans and small business owners use computers for designing products, tracking sales, and connecting with customers online—digital skills let you run a smarter, more profitable business.
