Roll Out International Computer Driver License in Ethiopia

The Ethio-German Sustainable Training and Education Programme (STEP) improves the employment prospects of young Ethiopians by promoting quality and relevance in vocational training and higher education. The programme establishes strong linkages between the education and the private sector to support the development of a modern education system geared towards employment and economic growth. Computer and digital literacy is a basic skill to succeed in today's world of work. In Ethiopia, the digitalisation is taking speed, but the formal and informal education is not ready to cope with the demand for computer and digital skill needs at schools, universities and on the labour market. With the given assignment, the skill gap shall be closed by introducing the internationally recognised Computer Driving License (ICDL) in Ethiopia.
