MAXIMIZE THE ADVANTAGE OF THE DIGITAL AGE

´ The Digital Age (also known as the Information Age, Computer Age or New Media Age) is a period in human history characterized by the shift from traditional industry that the industrial revolution brought through industrialization, to an economy based on information computerization. The onset of the Information Age is associated with the Digital Revolution, just as the Industrial Revolution marked the onset of the Industrial Age. Digital age refers to the present time use of machines and computers to present information in digital format. Some of the commonly used digital forms are the use of Information technology and the Internet. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is already a part of our everyday lives. The Internet, a major part of the Modern Media Technology Revolution is becoming increasingly popular and widespread. It has achieved penetration of massive population worldwide than any other technology before it. As we watched the trend goes, all forms of communication and information management tools are becoming digital, with the potential for merging and are having massive influence on our lives now and in the future. We now have smaller and cheaper computers, digital equipment (digital camera, digital video recorder e.t.c), embedded systems, also becoming the other of the day because they offer faster and more quality alternatives than their analog counterpart. 

´ The Digital Era is the 21^st century that we live, wherein almost everything is executed with the aid of computers cum ICT gadgets. For example, in 2015, Nigeria initiated the Computer Based Test for conducting Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME). With this system of Examination conducts, candidates’ access results after six hours of submission. To use ICT is very simple if you are well proficient with the use of these technologies/gadgets. The beauty of these technologies is the ability of these innovations to navigate boundaries and to proffer solutions real time to (our need or) myriad of tasks.

´ It is expedient that the Youth to do the needful to undertake trainings, retrain and untrain themselves in the evolving fields of ICT/computing. The reason is simply because; a man is as good as what you know. The inspiration I wrote in the book entitled DARE TO PONDER is your learning power today will determine your earning power tomorrow. It is how well you are proficient in your chosen career today that will dictate your value in the labour market tomorrow. It is simple, learn Today so as to lead Tomorrow. That is why it is believed that knowledge is power. You become empowered to excel in life when you have cognitive knowledge about a relevant field of human endeavour. The 2016 ICT Empowerment Initiative, as organized by RAREGEM I.T. CONSULTS INTERNATIONAL is a viable option for you to avail yourself the opportunities therein. The 2015 maiden edition was very successful, hence the motivation to give the 2016 edition a shot with optimism of a successful Computer Training Initiative. Even Olayinka Samuel and Ibukun Olaoluwa have signified their intentions to be at the upcoming 2016 edition to share their own testimonies to the credence of RAREGEM’s abilities to deliver all their promises to the students.
