The question often arose when this will happen for South Africa? We are glad that through our focus in investing in local institutions of higher learning, and our perseverance in strategic partnership with the DTPS, the breakthrough is in the horizon, and we wish our young talent returns with the required optimism and skills” The beneficiary students were outstanding students from various tertiary institutions across South Africa, they were handpicked for by the DTPS. The partnership between Huawei and the DTPS is a long standing one which aims to up-skill and train ICT professionals.
