Interns

The African Technology Policy Studies Network (ATPS) internship programme continues to offer pre-employment experience to various students from different learning institutions. The objective of this initiative is to help the student encounter, analyze and evaluate issues in their chosen occupations and also to acquire extensive professional experience.

About THE SECRETARIAT

The new ATPS Governance Structures have also adapted a Regional Secretariat with a less hierarchical line management structure – managed by a Secretariat Management Committee (SMC). The Secretariat is led by a Secretariat Management Committee (SMC) chaired by the Executive Director. The SMC comprises the Executive Director (ED); Director of Research, Training and Communications (DRTC); Finance and Administration Manager (FAM); the STI Policy/National Chapter Liaison Officer (STIP/NCLO); the Senior Secretary/Programs Administrative Assistant (SSPAS) who is the Secretary to the SMC, and any other Senor Staff that may be appointed by the Executive Director, from time to time. The SMC provides strategic intellectual and administrative direction to the Secretariat and regional activities of the ATPS, in liaison with the ATPS National Coordinators’ Regional Council. The SMC meets regularly to review the activities of the Network for effective continuous monitoring and control and inputs into the network management decisions. Where the SMC fail to reach an agreement on specific management decision, the ED shall consult with the Executive Administrative Board Committee accordingly and/or use his discretion as per the provisions of the ATPS Human Resource Policies and Procedures Manual.
