Comments:

	The WiderNet training programme has really been rejuvenating. The Knowledge acquired therefrom will be very useful for my professional needs and equips me better to re-train my colleagues. There is an urgent to fund the programme. It is a capacity building programme that will revolutionize the information and Communications technology world of Less Developed Countries. WiderNet, More power to your elbows.
	The training was effective. I would want more demonstration of some things taught. Also I will like to keep in touch in order to build myself and others around me.
	The programme will enhance my skill in order assembly the program has given more insight to the origin and new development in the ICT. I suggest that the management of UI should establish manpower development with University of Iowa. The program is timely.
	Practical interaction with computers and operating experience online will ensure confidence with computers and its accessories.
	It is a well organised training. It was well prepared for.
	Nice job keep it up.
	The training was to the standard. Satisfactory.
	Frequent organisation of such training will highly improve the qualities personnel working in the University and will go a long way in improving ICT in the community.
	I recommend that a training of this nature should be taught in all locations of developing universities of Africa.
	It has been highly rewarding experience which must be followed up and improved upon. I see hope for the IT sector of the country.
	The training was useful and will definitely improve my professional capabilities. I hope WiderNet will organise more workshops.
	The workshop was well organised and the various topics was well presented. The awareness of this project to various Federal universities did not go well. They have to improve on this aspect to enhance greater participation.
	The training has been good and encouraging
	WiderNet should ensure a follow up of this training to see that it achieves the desired results. More practical steps should be taken to help participants pass the A+ certification test.
	The duration of the project should be extended to give room for practical activities.
	A lot needs to be done in getting information across. We should know when and where what is happening.
	I believe that more is needed to consider some options on LAN. Otherwise the training has met all my expectation.
	There is still room for improvement
	The training is a fine opportunity for internet knowledge. It should be encouraged. The program is highly commendable.
	The program is highly commendable. It works towards bridging the gap in the IT field.
	Cliff and Mike are very accommodating. I take Mr. Missen to be a workaholic who has challenged my career.
	I would like to work with Mr. Missen when this type of opportunity comes again.
	This has workshop has improved my knowledge of computer maintenance and usage.
	All Federal Universities should be part of this program. The instructor should try and visit other universities to see what is on ground.
	More grease to your elbows. God bless you.
	It is a good initiative.
	WiderNet should use the training as an avenue for discovering potential students who can participate in the project and also be used to present courses at other venues.
	For the first time I was able to tear down and reassemble a computer unit. I have thought that the system is so fragile and that it would break if I touched it anyhow. The instruction was well presented, the practicals as well. These practicals do not exist even at the post graduate diploma level here.
	The training was precise and timely, it enhances every individual skills. None the less, basic software installations should have been included, because without this coupling of a system is not complete.
