Program Description

The provision of Telecommunication services in Tanzania is still at very low levels compared with many other countries. Both TCRA and ITU statistics concur in the conclusion that the penetration rates for both voice and internet services are low. This course reviews the situation and empowers telco staff to understand various aspects of the telecoms industry and its peculiarities in the Tanzanian operating environments. Our goal is to help participants contribute effectively in solving business, operational, and managerial problems in delivering telecommunications services in Tanzania.
