Are there any policies that you think if implemented can transform the educational sector of African nations
I propose that teacher certification, recruitment and promotion be reviewed to ensure that they are qualified to meet the learning demands at any point in their career. Teacher promotion should be tied to graded levels of continuous professional development (cpds), although could be subsidised, cpds should come at a charge of thorough commitment in cash or in other means of dedication to checkmate malpractices.  A minimum internet bandwidth should be made available in all communities to accelerate the use of edtech solutions and platforms. For example network mapping of all communities in a country could be made public with the government mandating internet providers to upgrade internet connectivity in very remote areas to a minimum of 3G for example and ensure that edtech solution providers design their products and platforms to function well with 3G internet connectivity. In addition, industrial training/practical year/teaching practice in universities should be more experiential for learners. Organisations and learning institutions could have a part of their tax deductions/evasions tied explicitly to their talent-to-market or gown-to-town achievements annually.
