The staff of the CARICOM Secretariat on Wednesday, November 3rd hosted its first group of students to visit the Guyana Headquarters in 2 years.
Over the years, hundreds of students would visit the CARICOM Secretariat to get a first-hand look at how the governing body supports the technical and administrative mechanisms of regional integration. The COVID-19 pandemic halted this tour and it is now revived after a 2-year hiatus.
Fifth-form students of the Tutorial Academy Secondary School benefitted from a presentation by the Secretariat’s Webmaster, Christopher Lawrence who discussed how information technology supports the work and integration of the Directorates, Programmes, and offices in Guyana, Barbados, and Jamaica. The students also had a presentation on hardware and software systems, including cloud computing technology.
The students learned also about starting careers in Information and Communications Technology.
