Grace Hopper Conference {Google Travel Grant 2014}

Those who have been keeping tabs on all my blog posts know that this is not the first time I am talking about the Grace Hopper Travel Grant. The other time was last year and you can see that post here.

Well, the opportunity is presenting itself again this year and I thought I should briefly let ya’ll know in case you would be interested in applying. Or to remind you just in case you knew about it but had sorta forgotten. Again, sorry fellas…this is just for the ladies!

Google Nairobi Interview

Happy new month people!! Whaaat, is it just me or does this year seem to be on steroids! I mean, just the other day it was Christmas and I remember telling ya’ll about my new year resolutions, which by the way are not going so well, and now we are already halfway through the year! Crazy, ey?

One of the Google offices in the world

But hopefully you are having better luck with your resolutions. As for me, I already converted those ones into my bucket list. This way, I’ll actually have more time to do them. However, if visiting a Google office was on your list, especially after watching that awesome movie The Internship, then here is an opportunity to finally do it! And cross it off once and for all…

Get Your Students Certified

Hello folks. How are you doin’?  I hope ya’ll are well and keeping warm during this sweater weather that we have going on in the country. It was a very eventful weekend for me so I thought I should share some of that goodness with you and hope that it would bring some sort of warmth hehe.

For those who have been keeping up with the GSAs, we should start that reality show hehe, you know that we have this project of training the students in our respective campuses in online basics and have them certified.  And this project is dubbed ‘Get Your Students Certified’.  In line with this, we held our Kenyatta University training this past Friday and Saturday.

Posters

The objective of this event was to promote web literacy, online basics and internet safety on campus to the students that would like to be certified. Publicity around the school was done by posters which were stuck in strategic locations.
