Introduction
This training program has been inspired by the global push for the adoption of Competency Based Curriculums. This program has therefore been developed in line with the principles of a Competency Based Curriculum.
A competency based curriculum is a curriculum that emphasizes what learners are expected to do rather than mainly focusing on what they are expected to know. In principle, such a curriculum is learner-centred and adaptive to the changing needs of students, teachers, and society. It implies that learners can acquire and apply the knowledge, skills, values, and attitudes to solve situations they encounter in everyday life.
Furthermore, the job market in the 21st century is evolving to create more opportunities in self-employment, online jobs, freelance jobs, jobs in small and micro enterprises rather than the traditional models of employment in careers like teaching, medicine, engineering, etc.
This training program will impart skills that will enable individuals to take advantage of these new opportunities.

Web Hosting has many measures these days, so you may be wondering if it is even worth it to have a dedicated web hosting for your business. Hosting services are available in a wide range of prices. This ranges from a few dollars a month to thousands of dollars. But many industries still have a need for niche web hosts tailored directly for them.

In a digital age marked by an always-on and always connected populace, your website often serves as the primary storefront for your business. Whether it is a site dedicated for blogging, eCommerce, eLearning, gaming or just a single webpage with contact information, your website is where you make that all-important first impression.

If you’re a company website owner the most disconcerting factor of choosing a suitable web hosting solution is the cost. There are many potential risks eliminated with the right hosting.
