A local business owner is providing a unique opportunity to inmates at Her Majesty’s Prison by offering free courses in Information Technology.
The programme, Introduction to Computer is being facilitated by owners of local company, Computer Reset Antigua. It runs for a three-month period and has already produced two sets of successful graduates.
The last batch of successful inmates graduated on Wednesday with an 89.9 percent average.
Prison Superintendent Lieutenant Colonel Eugene Phillip explained that the aim of the programme is to build the capacity of the inmates, some of whom will be able to sit exams administered by the Caribbean Examination Council (CXC) in particular subject areas.
