The new technologies of the fourth industrial revolution (4IR), such as artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing and robotics, are changing the future of manufacturing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Cameroon there is significant potential for such new technologies.\u00a0The government is committed to developing digital skills at all levels of its national education system. This focus on digital skills will enable people and businesses to capitalise on these new technologies and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Autodesk Learning Partner Consultation and Projects Africa (CPA)<\/strong> has been working with government ministries and educational institutions to support the development of digital skills.\u00a0The Fusion 360 Bootcamp<\/strong> was designed to help representatives from ministries, educators and students to understand the opportunities afforded by the latest manufacturing digital technologies in Cameroon and across Africa more generally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They were introduced to Autodesk\u00ae Fusion 360\u2122, and learnt how to make the most of its functionality.\u00a0 Fusion 360 is a cloud-based industrial design platform which is used by engineers, product designers, and industrial design professionals around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Participants included national and regional supervisors for mechanical training of the Ministry of Secondary Education, mechanical engineering lecturers and students. Educational institutions represented included Polytechnique de Douala, IUT (Institut Universitaire des Technologies) and IUC (Institutaire Universitaire de la cote), ESTAD and the National Advanced School of Engineering Yaounde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The government is committed to improving digital skills across Cameroon.\u00a0It recognises that these skills will help transform manufacturing in the country.\u00a0 We are delighted to work with the Ministry of Secondary Education and key academic institutions to support them in preparing for the future of manufacturing. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bootcamp held in Douala is the first stage in an ongoing programme.\u00a0We were really encouraged by the feedback from all the participants.\u00a0We heard from them that they\u2019re planning to take their learnings into the development of their curriculum.\u00a0This should mean that the next generation of Mechanical Engineers will be able to lead the way in the digital transformation of manufacturing in our country.<\/p>\nCyril Moba, Autodesk instructor at CPA<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
