Message from
Mr Roshan Gandhi, Director of Strategy, CMS

I am delighted to showcase the value being created by our team of dedicated IT Assistants across CMS, under the guidance of our eLearning Leaders at Head Office. These are highly multi-talented, versatile, and dynamic individuals: on any given day, their work can include conducting teachers’ IT Training, providing technical support for interactive white boards, enabling people to use new ERP or Portal systems, assisting in the creation of digital classroom content, and much more! I know that they have impressed people with their positive, proactive nature, and personally I am happy to note their attitude: they are always ready to learn and keep abreast of the latest technological trends and developments. We hope you enjoy reading about their work, contributions, and views.
