The program will train 500 participants in total across two tracks: tech employment and tech entrepreneurship. It runs for 16 weeks under the theme **"Learn, Grow, Thrive."**
The first batch comprises 25 trainees in the tech employment track. Each participant will be assigned a computer system, for which they will be responsible throughout the training sessions.
