My former counterpart, who works in the Ministry of
Education in The Gambia, has a funding opportunity to go
abroad for a one year course in information management/
systems. She currently has a form 6 certificate, and has
been working with a database for the past three years as
part of her job. I think ideally she would want to be able
to pick up the theoretical background and technical skills
to develop or improve a computer based information
management system for an NGO or gov't agency.

If anyone can recommend a 6 month or 1 year program in information systems, perhaps one that caters to visiting international students and/or focuses on applications in development, please let me know.

Thanks.
