Secured Future Initiative, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting digital literacy and empowering students and teachers, achieved a significant milestone by introducing Computer-Based Testing (CBT) exams at Yewa College Ilaro. 

The new development has actively contributed to the empowerment of teachers and students by equipping them with essential digital skills. In the Yewa South local government area, more than 80 teachers from public primary and secondary schools have undergone training to enhance their proficiency in navigating the digital landscape. 

Furthermore, comprehensive digital skills training has been provided to a total of 1,210 students in the region, preparing them for the future challenges they may encounter.

A significant testament to the forward-thinking approach of the Secured Future Initiative is the introduction of Computer-Based Testing (CBT) exams at Yewa College Ilaro. This step demonstrates their commitment to leveraging technology for educational transformation. By aligning with global trends in digitizing assessment methods, Secured Future Initiative ensures that Nigerian students are well-equipped to thrive in the digital age.

CBT exams offer several advantages over traditional pen-and-paper examinations. By utilizing computers, students can easily navigate through exam questions, select their answers, and receive immediate feedback on their performance. This modern approach not only enhances efficiency but also fosters the development of critical thinking and problem-solving skills among students.

Ismail Rasaki, the founder and CEO of Secured Future Initiative, enthusiastically expressed his pride in this groundbreaking achievement.

He stated, "The successful implementation of CBT exams at Yewa College Ilaro marks a significant milestone for us. It is a testament to our commitment to bridging the digital divide in education and empowering students with the essential skills they need to excel in the ever-evolving 21st-century workforce. We are dedicated to creating a future where every student has the tools and knowledge to succeed."

"The introduction of CBT exams represents a significant leap forward in our pursuit of this goal. This project stands out among others as it is the first of its kind in the history of Teach For Nigeria."

"By implementing CBT exams, we are breaking new ground and setting a precedent for innovative and technology-driven approaches to education. We take immense pride in pioneering this initiative, knowing that it will positively impact the lives of students and shape the future of education in Nigeria."

Secured Future Initiative continues to spearhead efforts to promote digital literacy and bridge the digital divide in education. Through collaborations with stakeholders, they aim to extend their initiatives to more schools and communities, ensuring that students and teachers have the necessary tools and skills to thrive in the digital age.

As the nation witnesses the historic launch of CBT exams at Yewa College Ilaro, it is evident that Nigeria's education system is embracing the power of technology to shape a brighter future for its students. With organizations like Secured Future Initiative leading the way, the journey towards a more digital and inclusive education landscape has commenced.

Ismail stated further that "The Secured Future Initiative's visionary approach extends beyond digital skills training. Recognizing the importance of sustainability, the initiative has set its sights on a new endeavour - the installation of solar panels at Yewa College Ilaro. By harnessing the power of renewable energy, the school aims to reduce its reliance on conventional electricity sources, minimize its carbon footprint, and create a more environmentally friendly learning environment."

However, to realize this ambitious sustainability plan, the Secured Future Initiative seeks the support and cooperation of the general public. By coming together, community members, organizations, and businesses can contribute to this noble cause and help Yewa College Ilaro achieve its goal of long-term sustainability through the installation of solar panels. With this collective effort, the school can continue to provide quality education and inspire future generations.

The Secured Future Initiative's commitment to transforming education in Yewa South is commendable. By introducing CBT exams at Yewa College Ilaro and empowering teachers and students with digital skills, they are paving the way for a brighter future. Now, with their initiative to harness solar energy, they are further demonstrating their dedication to sustainable practices.
