ABOUT
THE INSTITUTE.
INTRODUCTION
CAL
Institute of Technology is an incorporated private limited company owned by a
group of professionals. Established in 2009
initially to provide quality and innovative solutions in the ICT sector to
small, medium and large business entities, Government and Non-Government
organisations and to individuals. In November 2010, CAL Institute of Technology expanded on the back successful performance into computer
training, consultancy, public relations, selling of computers and accessories
and was subsequently registered by the Registrar of Companies with training
facility tools as its core activity. For purposes of efficiency, the
institution is solidly associated to a wide network of leading resource
trainers, learning materials and other institutions
It specializes in provision of practical,
problem-oriented and customer-tailored ICT and business solutions, skills,
knowledge, information and support services aimed at solving the clients’
problems, improving their efficiency, effectiveness and profitability of their
businesses/work. In order to measure to our clients’ needs and expectations,
the management of CAL Institute has gone an extra mile to acquire all possible
resources, make linkages, and recruit the best personnel it can find and
prepared them to offer the best service possible. And through its human
resource development policy, all company personnel are constantly provided with
opportunities and support to improve their skills and knowledge.
OUR VISION STATEMENT
To equip all learners with
the experiences and skills of ICT that they will use in a rapidly changing
technological world. Learners in our training centre will be confident and
independent in their use of ICT to solve problems across the curriculum. This will be continually developed with the
Building centres for the Future scheme in mind.
LONGER
VERSION OF CAL INSTITUTE VISION STATEMENT
We
aim to keep pace with educational and technological developments in ICT and
have a commitment to teachers having the necessary tools e.g. laptops and
interactive whiteboards to do their jobs effectively. Therefore this training
centre is committed to change and the effective management of that change.
We aim to provide an
environment where access to ICT resources is natural, commonplace and safe.
We aim to ensure that
teachers develop confidence and competence to use ICT in the effective teaching
of their subject.
The Learning Platform (LP)
will support the development of effective collaboration by providing up-to-date
information and documents that may be “downloaded” and others that are
interactive and “real-time” to be used by students.
All students and teachers
will be ICT confident and competent and able to exploit ICT fully to improve
their learning and teaching.
Parental use of ICT will be
encouraged. Access to the LP will be
given to parents along with online real time reporting.
Extensive and appropriate
specialist ICT will be available for specific curriculum areas to meet the
training centre’s specialisms e.g. The Applications
All classrooms and student
work areas will be effectively ICT equipped and the technology will be used on
an as-needed basis.
The LP will enable the sharing
of resources across all centres in the city and elsewhere where learners have
access, involving teachers, teaching assistants, technicians and librarians.
Teachers and support staff will source and share materials locally, nationally
and internationally making wide use of existing resources. Teachers will
contribute further materials to the pool using time released by workforce
remodeling. Sharing through ICT will be the norm for teachers and learners
alike.
The LP will have the
facility for providers to analyse data on achievements, retention, success
rates and attendance for individual and collaborative provision to develop
local benchmarks and to support individual target-setting for students.
Programs of study will be
accessible both within the school environment and remotely from other
designated secure sites.
Remote learning for minority
subjects will be available through virtual classroom/ videoconferencing
facilities. Those involved in such learning and teaching provision will be
networked regardless of distance.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of CAL Institute of Technology is:
‘To provide the IT infrastructure and services framework that
enables all our customers, staff and students, to exploit state-of-the-art
information and communication developments’.
Access to information resources and the ability to
inter-communicate are fundamental to the strategic aims and activities of institute
in teaching, research and administration. ICT develops and manages the
infrastructure and services necessary to process electronic communications and
information to meet these needs.
ICT strives to make all its services reliable, resilient and
easily accessible. Most importantly, it ensures they meet customer needs, while
providing good value for College as a whole.

ABOUT
THE PARTINERSHIP IN TRAING COMPUTER
Background of Computer Training
We have made custom-designed
curriculums for computer programs which are very beneficial for student both
working and school going students. These curriculums are in compliance with the
"laws" of computer training covering all areas of applications such
as Microsoft, Graphics and accounting. This gives the trainees that edge in ICT
world with that on demand computer knowledge. A Certificate in computer
applications course comprising of Introduction to DOS & Windows, Ms Word,
Excel, Power Point, Access and E-mail Communication. We fully understand how
important this factor is as far as producing students who are not only coming
out with a paper but with the knowledge and skills that will help them cross
borders in computer and basic applications knowledge.
Objectives:
- To
establish a modern and well managed training centre
- To
train the youths in ICT fields that will improve the ICT systems use in
Uganda and outside Uganda.
- To
improve the lives of the community by equipping them with ICT skills that
will enable them improve their earnings.
- To
put in place a demonstration computer training management unit that will
help the community to learn how to effectively increase their awareness
for economic stability.
- To
empower the community especially the young generation through providing
training in ICT that will enable them competing in the job market.
We will be carrying out a biweekly
sessions covering one graphic program for two hours a day, starting from 5pm to
9pm we intend to do this continuously. This will bring out the best in our
students and also help promote both companies to the public and hence making it
easier to get more students covering other computer applications such as
introduction and office applications. This will mainly be done by the period
advertisement like making poster and other modes of advertisement for these
biweekly training sessions. In additions to that, these training programs will
benefit the companies financially since the trainings will be done for a big
number of students and in a short time.
MODES OF THE MARKETING AND
TRAINING
Marketing:
This will not be purely word of
mouth, we intend to use the community (worship places, local areas and), poster
and fliers, if the partnering companies agree, we shall also be able to use
other modes of advertisement such as newspaper and other modes which shall be
consider viable.
Follow ups:
This will include making phone calls,
sending e-mails and text messages to probable student who shall have registered
with us during the time of the advertisement. If we don’t rise enough number of
students for a given training sessions, we shall push the training a little bit
ahead to wait for the numbers to go up to the minimum required.
Mode of training:
We intend to have face to face class
based training with the students. Each class should have a minimum of 10
students and a maximum of 20 students depending on the turn-up of the students.
Target
group:
This program mainly targets working
class people and school going students who are mainly university students
taking business courses. And those entrepreneurs who are interested in making
their computer skills more effective and reliable by opting to use computer
programs.
Time Frame:
This program is continuous and will
be done every evening 5pm to 9pm, depending on the time available, if need be
we shall also be training students over the weekend and that may not
necessarily be in the evening. We intend to train one graphic program every two
weeks.
Training materials
and Training:
This will be provided by CAL
Institute since we have been more involved into training and installations of
computer application programs. Having been into the business of computer
training, Sales and computer software sales and data entry, it won’t be hard to
provide the materials needed to train the students.
Other Services:
Since
CAL Institute. has been involved in a lot of ICT projects, we intend to cover
other IT projects alongside the partner, as long as it’s in the interest of
both companies. This will involve but not limited to; Computer sales,
consultations, IT Support services, Web and graphics designing and any other
service as the partnering companies shall decide.
