Some 315 persons have registered for free computer classes following a recruitment drive in Regions 2, 3,4,6,7 and 10 conducted by the Guyana Police Force’s [GPF] Zara Computer Centre last Friday.

A GPF press release stated that Assistant Superintendent Gladwin Hanover coordinated the recruitment drive. The release also deemed the exercise a huge success and cited staff in the regions who said that they were proud to report that, ‘they were completely blown away by the number of persons who expressed interest in the computer classes.’

The ecstatic general public, according to the release, claimed to have been ‘shocked’ to learn that the courses were not only free but also accredited. The GPF release says that as a result of the recruitment drive, 315 persons have registered for upcoming classes. So far the Centre has trained over 800 persons in the Foundation courses from September 2022 to date across the above mentioned Regions.

The GPF’s Zara Computer Centre, according to the release, aims to create equal opportunities for Guyanese to evolve in the technological era, enabling interaction with police and members of the public through information technology classes, and strengthening the relationship between the Guyana Police Force and the wider society.

The GPF release includes a list of phone numbers for members of the general public to contact if interested in free computer studies and training.
