Governments Worldwide are increasingly recognizing the need to facilitate access to public services to citizens, businesses and industries through the use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT). Like many countries that have ventured into ICT and BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) initiatives, we believe that providing quality education - in the right environment - will be a catalyst towards taking confident strides into the IT economy.
We dream of a modern and state-of-the-art centre of higher education and learning that is equipped with facilities of the highest quality and standards, developed around a well-formulated and open curriculum - and is backed by the best faculty members of staff possible. Its graduates are adequately equipped for the job market and its various challenges that lie ahead. With this dream, LAVIT has envisioned and is in the process of materilising the Jinja University ("JUST") and Makerere Business School - as key components of LAVIT's environment. JUST is LAVIT's centre of excellence for higher education and learning, which will complement the Park's other acitivites and facilities which are built around research and development and ICT and Biotechnology operations.
JUST, being part of a new and fresh environment - is a welcomed getaway from the concentration of ICT training institutions which are currently centred within the capital city of Kampala.
