INTRODUCTION
This program is to prepare youths to be responsible individual who will become self-reliance thinkers,

by increasing them in real life experience.

With maximum lack of ICT operators in Vandeikya Local Government of Benue state. There should

be a sensitive advancement to the challenges facing it. The challenges are due to the recent

improvement in the modern computer world like. Its more challenging here in Vandeikya Local

Government area of Benue state. Because once a modern computer developed a problem it has to be

taken away town to the neighboring town to be fixed. While there are quite numbers of unemployed

youths in the Vandeikya local government who are not engaged in any gainful occupation or activities

but rooming around the streets and mostly participating in dubious activities which could result in

tarnishing their future. Its quite heart-touching to let our potential youth go astray due to the lack of

employment.

The Vandeikya Town should as a matter of urgency engaged these street rooming youths to a

gainful engagement which could explore them to the occupational world by enrolment into the

Computer operation because skills are vital for poverty reduction, economic recovery and

sustainable development. As a consequence, policy attention to computer operation and literacy. Is

not only increasing nationally but worldwide.

Consequently, in lieu of the above subject or rather an issue, I purposely designed and proposed this

blue print to you sir, so that it can be a serious relief or a way out to our unemployed youths if properly

implemented.

Nature of the Programme

The Vandeikya Information and Communication Technology Training Institute (VICTTI) is an

exploratory, first course in Information and Communication Technology and is primarily for students

ARCHITECTURAL STRUCTURE

The institute should be located in Dass Town. The building should be constructed in a standard way

for durability and safety related issues.

The building should comprises of (5) set of classrooms blocks with three (1) Computer Laboratory,

making 6 standard classes. The toilet and bathroom should be erected in a distance from the

classrooms which should have some auxiliaries within. The administrative blocks should also built

to accommodate the staff. The whole size land for the institute is approximated to 200 meters square,

and the construction may cost 10,000,000

CONCLUSION

Conclusively, the program is actually designed to create a way to the increasing unemployed youths

to be fully self-independent or self-reliant citizen by giving them a vocational and technical education

training and awareness. The Programme is engineered toward creating a source of revenue to the

local government.

Although the program is quite financial exhausting but if its fully implements would

multiply, or generate revenue more than ten times injected. While at the same instant some numbers

of the participants would be retained in the local government ICT department.
