Empowering Educators with Digital Teaching Skills

Morogoro, Tanzania

Morogoro Vocational Teachers Training College (MVTTC), in partnership with the Karume Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) and global edtech leader 3DBEAR, recently hosted a transformative four-day training program under the TVET@Work project. The objectives of this initiative are to enhance the capabilities of vocational education and training (VET) providers and instructors, foster public-private collaboration for demand-driven VET programs, and improve the quality and responsiveness of TVET to economic and social changes.
Held from April 28 to May 2, 2025, the training was designed to strengthen the digital teaching skills of vocational educators from across all regions of Tanzania.
Under the theme “Empowering Educators Through Digital Literacy and Pedagogy,” the program brought together instructors from diverse institutions to explore cutting-edge digital tools and innovative teaching strategies tailored for the modern vocational classroom.
The training focused on three key objectives:
•    Equipping teachers to design actionable plans for integrating digital tools into their courses.
•    Building foundational knowledge of digital teaching technologies and their role in improving learning outcomes.
•    Encouraging critical evaluation of digital tools to assess their impact and effectiveness in specific teaching contexts.
Led by expert facilitators from 3DBEAR, fifteen (15) participants engaged in dynamic workshops, collaborative group sessions, and hands-on learning activities—ensuring the training was not only informative but also immediately applicable in classroom settings.
“Training in digital tools such as AI, Mentimeter, Kahoot, Canva, Flinga, and Trello has equipped me with essential skills that will support curriculum development and documentation improvement. As the Training Coordinator at VETA Headquarters, I am deeply inspired to share this knowledge with trainers across the country, as it will streamline lesson preparation and enhance teaching effectiveness,” said Aneth B. Mganga, Curriculum Development Coordinator at VETA Headquarters.
The success of this training highlights the value of international collaboration. With MVTTC’s local leadership and 3DBEAR’s global expertise, Tanzanian vocational educators are now better equipped to meet the evolving needs of today’s learners.
