Nomusa Keninda has made eMalahleni and Mpumalanga Department of Education proud again. On the 25th February 2022 at Birchwood Hotel, she was announced as one of the TRAILBLAZER Award Winner coming from Mpumalanga Province for her contribution to digital literacy within education. The ceremony was organized by the Centre for Public Service Innovation (CPSI).
Keninda is well known for her zeal and commitment to the ICT in Education. She is the Founder and the CEO of the Mpumalanga ICT CLUB, the club that she established in 2014 to empower teachers, learners and the youth with digital technologies.
Keninda was also invited to share her journey of innovation
with other finalists from various government departments during the two days of the Design
Thinking Methodology Workshop before the award ceremony at Birchwood Hotel in Ekurhuleni. Design thinking seeks
to unlock innovative solutions in a process that involves empathizing, defining,
ideating, prototyping and testing.
“The workshop was excellently presented, it came at the
right time where there are challenges in many workplaces ranging from lack of
change management, digital transformation phobia and many more that need
creativity and innovation. I learnt a lot from other finalists where
they are also confronted with resistance to change from the traditional way of
doing things in order to accelerate service delivery,” said Keninda.
