Visit the WCG eCentre in Langebaan
In 2012, the Western Cape Government (WCG) opened the WCG eCentre in Langebaan to provide communities with access to digital resources and skills development opportunities. By guaranteeing that people, especially those living in underprivileged areas, have access to technology, information, and digital literacy training, the program seeks to close the digital divide.
At the Langebaan WCG eCentre, visitors can expect a range of services, including:
- The Internet
- Email and assistance to create emails.
- Online job searches and applications.
- Online university applications.
- Free printing.
- Basic informal computer course training.
- e-Learner online computer course training.
- International Computer Digital Literacy (ICDL) computer course training.
The community has benefited greatly from the collaboration between the Langebaan WCG eCentre, the Saldhana Bay Municipality, and the Langebaan Thusong Center.Scholars who had no access to online learning materials visit the eCentre daily to complete assignments and conduct research.
Some residents of Langebaan used the eCentre to apply for EPWP programmes, and some applied for internships via the eCentre and received job offers from the Saldanha Bay Municipality. Some youth used the ICT training as a steppingstone to apply for opportunities and better jobs outside of town.
