Background

A meaningful development of any country can only be fully achieved if its citizens are fully developed through quality education and training. In light of this realization, Northgate Technical College cc was established as a good corporate citizen to work hand in hand with both the people and government of Namibia in achieving their mutual economic, social and developmental goals.

The College strives to employ qualified and experienced teachers dedicated to producing the required results. Currently, the college consists of seven (7) employees: a secretary, a cleaner, teachers, and the management.

The College will also be engaged in corporate training and conducting seminars in a wide range of areas. It is envisaged that through its activities, the College will add value to the government policies already in place and assist the government in achieving its 2030 vision.

As our motto puts it in brief, the College aims to “help people and organizations grow,” with an ultimate goal of raising the living standards of the people of Namibia and their productivity through education and training.
