Reminder: Launch of innovative digital project

The University of Cape Town (UCT) is excited to announce the launch of an innovative digital pilot project as part of the institution’s Vision 2030.

This programme will be launched on Wednesday, 22 June 2022 on the Microsoft Teams platform, from 12:00 to 13:15.

• Join the launch event (at 12:00).

The programme will be launched in partnership with Umuzi, which trains top talent for digital roles at leading corporates and other institutions in South Africa. It will offer an additional pathway to employment for determined young individuals and help students unleash their digital potential.

UCT Vice-Chancellor Professor Mamokgethi Phakeng started her tenure in 2018 with a futures oriented vision to deliver a new strategic plan that is centred around three pillars: excellence, transformation and sustainability; and to challenge the university to imagine what a successful and thriving UCT would look like in 2030.

For this reason, UCT continues to introduce interventions to support current and past students to continue their journey of learning. This is an important part of UCT’s social responsibility, to find and offer excellent and innovative educational programmes to help the university’s students succeed.

More details on this important pilot project will be shared at the launch.
