Sahara Computers, a national supplier of information, communication and digital lifestyle product, has added impetus to its ongoing Get IT campaign, with a recent visit to one of the University of South Africa’s (UNISA) satellite campuses based in Sunnyside, Pretoria.
The ICT company wasted no time in setting up a two-day product and information demonstration which offered students and visitors an opportunity to view the latest available mobile and technology lifestyle solutions.
Sahara’s Technical support partner Nerds on Site was on hand to offer visitors free technical information, advise and assistance with their products and devises
“The on-site support and service team work through our established Sahara Service Camps, another very successful and key element of the Get IT campaign. The Service Camps have done exceptionally well at the tertiary institutions that we have visited to date and it is clear there is a demand for this level of interaction between the market and learners with regard to technology and how it can be best utilized on a practical, day-to-day basis,” says Gary Naidoo, deputy MD at Sahara.
Sahara Computers is an established provider of technology infrastructure to the global marketplace and has identified education as on of its core areas of interest.
The company is working with the Communications Students Association (COMSA) with regard to the possibility of further joint initiatives to bring technology into learners and drive the awareness of benefits and investment in IT infrastructure.
Valencia Nxele, who is in the process of finalizing her second year modules for Communication Science course at Unisa, believes that technology is a very good thing for students and the initiative taken by Sahara is worthwhile and of significant value.
Bheki Mdhluli, also Communications Science student, agrees: “This is a very good idea. It is valuable for the business and commercial sector to engage with us directly, not just for the sake of technology alone, but also for our career development and opportunities in the workplace.”
Naidoo adds that this initiative is an important step towards building lasting partnerships in the industry and with educators / learners in order to provide greater access to technology and also improve the understanding of what technology can do for individuals and the installation of basic education in general.
The education-focused facet of the Sahara Get IT campaign continues and will be covering a number of institutions in the Gauteng region.
