Course schedule
The Programme for Development and Training (PDT) of the CTO is an extensive international knowledge exchange and capacity building programme in the field of ICT. Each year, around 1,000 information and communication technology professionals from across the Commonwealth are trained by the CTO through training courses organised under the PDT. We leverage a wide network of engineers, business managers and other industry experts from our Membership to help deliver these courses. While some of these courses are limited to the PDT members, most courses admit non-members.
