Katine Technical Training Institute in Matungulu constituency has received 100 computers from the national government in a move aimed to upgrade the training standards of the tertiary institution.
A further Kes.20 million from the Constituency Development Fund will be used to build classes for students taking electrical courses in the institution in the 2023/2024 financial year, Matungulu MP Stephen Mule disclosed yesterday during a visit to the institution.
The building of the classrooms and the administration block had already started but stalled.
"I thank the government for making sure that we start our computer classes. They gave out 100 computers which have been installed in two computer labs,"said Mr Mule.
He said the Katine Technical Training Institute was earmarked to be a center of excellence in the region in terms of technical training and urged prospective students from the neighborhood to make use of the facility.
The institution offers artisan, certificate and diploma courses in a number of disciplines including technical, business and hospitality.
