Northern Cape Department of Education, Hanley Group, and Cisco Collaborates for Digital Transformation
The Northern Cape Department of Education, in partnership with Hanley Group and Cisco, is launching a strategic collaboration to accelerate digital inclusion and bridge the skills gap in 235 provincial schools.
The engagement formalizes a framework to integrate Cisco Networking Academy courses, where applicable, into the local curriculum to equip learners with globally recognized digital, cybersecurity, AI and networking certifications. By aligning education with the demands of the digital economy, this engagement supports a robust future-ready talent ecosystem.
The program, supported by Hanley Group as the implementation partner, will empower educators through specialized training and provides students with dual-certification pathways to enhance their workforce readiness.
