Forty computer engineers and information technology graduates began training on Website design in Asaba on Monday.

Declaring the training open, the Special Adviser to Gov. Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta on ICT, Mr Sunny Ofili, said it would make the beneficiaries to become employers of labour.

``The state wants to use this two weeks to train computer engineers on A+, JAVA, Database and C++.

``If Google, Facebook and Zinox wants to have an office in Delta, they can be used as point of call,'' he said.

According to him, beneficiaries shall be able design personal websites to start  business and be employers of labour, as no huge amount is needed to start up.

Ofili also said that the training would help the participants to be self sustaining, adding that it would turn out to be a life changing event for them.

He, therefore, advised them to take the training seriously, adding that more training would be coming up twice in a year.

Ofili explained that the training was organised by the state government in conjunction with National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA).

Responding on behalf of the participants, Mr Festus Nwaomucha, thanked the state government for organising the training and appealed for its sustenance.
