Computer Pride Sitah Lango came a long way from preparing tea and bread along a river to now being the Regional Country ManagerEast Africa at The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT), a global provider of secure financial messaging services. Sitah graduated in 2012 from Computer Pride, one of our long-standing Accredited Partner Centres in Kenya. She enjoyed her study there, especially the interactive approach of the programme: We engaged with fellow classmates on several sessions through group projects. “The various assignments I completed were thoughtprovoking. The higher education course helped broaden my perspective in my field of interest.”
Reflecting on the journey she’s taken ever since graduation, Sitah has no regrets. When asked to give advice to herself when starting out, she says:
You are on the right track, keep doing what you are doing and don’t allow the setbacks to weigh you down. Use every experience as a stepping stone to the next level, bad or good. Looking into the future, Sitah plans to reach out to more lives: “I’m working on the fundamentals to start a charity organisation in Kenya. “My future dream is to work with community-based programmes to help uplift women and girls.” ■
