Technology Business and Innovations Incubation Center

The Busitema University through the Faculty of Engineering and Technology, and its Technology Business and innovations incubation center (TBIIC) established an opportunity for Skills Development Program (SDP) on short term basis of 6 months to equip mainly the youth with the requisite technical skills that are badly needed in the service and manufacturing industries. The areas of focus for this short term training program include welding and metal part fabrication, Post-harvest handling and processing technologies, Irrigation technologies and Innovations,
Automotive repair, operation and Maintenance and brick laying and concrete practice. These programs target producing highly trained and skilled human resource urgently needed in the wide range of industries.

The program content for each of the five (5) short-term courses is tailored to the hands-on training to fill skills gap that many employers decry of the many school graduates and dropouts, whom they find unemployable but rather require further polishing to meet employment requirements. Also professionals from relevant backgrounds are always given a chance to renew their skills and knowledge profiles for better performance in their fields of work.

This skilling programme started in November 2022 with a population of 73 trainees (61 males
and 12 females), and ended in April, 2023, the main sponsor being Stanbic Bank.
