Today, Rwanda TVET Board (RTB), in partnership with the International Labour Organization (@ilo ) and @SOLVIT_AFRICA as the implementing partner, hosted a High-Level Breakfast Meeting with leading technology industry stakeholders to officially launch the Quality Apprenticeship Pilot Program.
The program aims to strengthen the transition from school to employment by connecting Technical Secondary School graduates in Software Development with structured, high-quality apprenticeship opportunities. Through hands-on workplace learning, participants will gain practical experience, strengthen industry-relevant competencies, and enhance their employability in Rwanda's rapidly evolving digital economy.
Chaired by @RwandaICT, the meeting brought together senior representatives from government, the Private Sector Federation (PSF), @rwictchamber , development partners, and companies committed to hosting apprentices under the program.
The discussions reaffirmed a shared commitment to expanding workplace learning opportunities, strengthening collaboration between industry and the TVET sector, and developing the skilled digital workforce needed to accelerate Rwanda's digital transformation and socio-economic development. #NanjyeNdiTVET

For the #DSEProgram, 80% young women: "Your greatest asset is being trainable. Your skills are your currency; keep learning, adapting & applying. Distinguish between what you can't do & what you simply haven't done yet, & don't let perfectionism hold you back." @ritaclemence
