Six Secondary Schools Now Have 3D Design Technology

The Ministry of Education today commissioned a computer-aided design (CAD) laboratory at Zeeburg Secondary School, thereby completing the first phase of an initiative to modernise and improve digital skills, as it relates to the delivery of industrial technology education in secondary schools.

At a total cost of GY$85 million, six secondary schools nationwide were outfitted with air-conditioned spaces equipped with high-powered laptops, peripheral hardware and AutoCAD software.

Speaking at the ceremony, Deputy Chief Education Officer for Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) Dr Ritesh Tularam emphasised that technical training must evolve beyond basic manual skills.
