SKSI/MeetingNotes/2021-11-10 Meeting

Present: Varunesh, Wayne, William, Dave

Apologies: Roland is unable to participate as he's preparing to depart from the UK for Samoa (via NZ).

Meeting Minutes:

Wayne requested that we set up a timeline for Dave's proposed tutorials for technologists. We agreed that we could do training sessions for educators in February.

Dave will work out timeslots (with a breakdown of content for each session) for the initial tutorials so we can start to advertise them among the technologists associated with the SKSI initiative, e.g. MESC, NUS, and SQA.

We discussed getting permission for including various organisational logos (UNESCO Chair, MESC, SKSI, Indian government, etc.) on the advertising materials.

Varun to follow up Nehru's offer to provide an introduction to SITA (Samoa IT Association - public & private sector) to see if we can promote these courses through that...

Wayne and Dave will draft the tutorial advertisement.

Varun asked if we could plan to complete Stage 2 of the SKSI project work by the end of Q1 2022 (end of March). He noted that our Stage 1 report has been submitted to the UNESCO and partners with positive feedback.

Varun also mentioned there's some uncertainty about the supplier of the ordered Lifelong Learning Lab computing & support hardware - they may not be able to deliver, which might require retendering, with an associated delay.
