The Deputy Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, Rev. Prof. John Kitayimbwa, representing the Vice Chancellor, officially opened a nine-day Training of Trainers in ACE (Accelerated Christian Education). The training aims to equip facilitators to effectively implement the ACE curriculum, which is biblically based and emphasizes a holistic approach to education.

While launching the session, Rev. Prof. Kitayimbwa applauded the School of Education for coordinating the program and encouraged them to handle it well so as to inspire other schools to embrace this kind of curriculum.

He further thanked Marius Johannes Bezuidenhout, the Senior Manager at AEE Durban, for coming all the way from South Africa to UCU to empower staff with knowledge about the ACE curriculum.

In his remarks, Marius expressed gratitude to God, noting that the progress seen today is a testament to divine grace. As someone who has witnessed the program from its early stages, he described this milestone as deeply significant.

In attendance were the Dean of the School of Education, Dr. Mary Kagoire, and Heads of Department Dr. Faith Musinguzi and Dr. Annet Musiimenta.
