Regenesys School of Technology: The Game-Changer in Local ICT Sector
Nicolaas Kruger, CEO of Regenesys School of Technology, is about to shake up the local ICT sector with a series of qualifications that will have a massive impact. The school, which launched in February, has already kicked off with a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in computer science and is now rolling out a post-grad diploma in data science in October.
But what’s behind this sudden move into technology-focused education? According to Kruger, it’s all about awakening potential. "Technology is the future, and we’re not just talking about coding and software development. We’re talking about the entire ecosystem of innovation and disruption that’s happening across industries."
And it’s not just about South Africa. The Regenesys Group, with campuses in Sandton, Lagos, and Mumbai, has over 200,000 students and alumni from 190 countries. So, what makes them think they can make a dent in the global tech scene?
Kruger believes that the Regenesys School of Technology is uniquely positioned to make a difference. "We’re not just teaching technology; we’re teaching the business of technology. We’re teaching the leaders of tomorrow how to harness the power of technology to drive innovation and growth."
But don’t just take his word for it. The 2022 JCSE-IITPSA ICT Skills Survey found growing demand for fourth industrial revolution skills, particularly in areas such as data analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. And with the likes of Square Kilometre Array and MeerKAT radio telescope projects demanding data-centric skills, it’s clear that the future is bright for those who can master these technologies.
So, what’s next for Regenesys School of Technology? Plans are already in place to bring in the second intake, and Kruger is confident that the school will continue to disrupt the status quo. "We’re not just building a school; we’re building a movement. We’re building a community of innovators, entrepreneurs, and leaders who will shape the future of technology and drive growth in South Africa and beyond."
Data Science: The Critical and Scarce Skill
Data science is a critical and scarce skill across the country in various sectors. For example, financial services and projects like the Square Kilometre Array and MeerKAT radio telescope are increasingly demanding data-centric skills.
