APCICT Virtual Academy

The APCICT Virtual Academy, an online distance learning platform launched in June 2009, is part of the multi-channel delivery mechanism that APCICT employs in the implementation of its flagship ICT for development (ICTD) capacity building programmes.

The programmes include “Academy of ICT Essentials for Government Leaders” (Academy), “Primer Series on ICTD for Youth” (Primer Series), "Women ICT Frontier Initiative" (WIFI), and “Knowledge Sharing Series” (KSS), which aim to equip government officials, youth, and educators with the essential knowledge and skills they need to fully leverage information and communication technologies (ICTs) to achieve national development goals.
