TVET Principal Secretary Dr Esther Muoria said is a noble idea for Huawei to organize such a competition where the students know they are not only working to know their space but also to practice it out while competing with others.
"When you stay in your country you compete with others within your area, within your space, but when it is an international event like this, you are gearing up to meet on an international stage, and therefore you are striving to not only be the best in your environment but to be the best in the globe," she said.
The PS added, "It is a good thing for Huawei to think about a way of encouraging students. Me, as a practical educator, an educator who wants students to work on practical skills, I am very impressed by this because I encourage students work on a real situation basis."
At the same ceremony, Kenya School of TVET was awarded as a new Huawei Instructor Support Center in Kenya which will function as a center for ICT Cutting edge technologies training for TVET teachers in Kenya.
Zhou Hong, President of Huawei's Institute of Strategic Research told the finalists to make sure everyone can truly enjoy the benefits of digitalisation while such technologies are making radical progress.
Huawei awarded 24 instructors the title Huawei ICT Academy Global Most Valuable Instructor for the first time.
This award aims to show gratitude for the important contributions these instructors have made to talent development and mark them as role models that show how the brightest minds can develop even brighter minds.
These role models will help drive the sustainable development of the ICT talent ecosystem.
