FDRE Technical and Vocational Training Institute (FTVTI) in Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia and the horn of the African continent. The Institute has the objectives such as to offer an internationally accepted undergraduate, postgraduate and short-term trainings to TVET teachers, technicians and leadership, to build the implementation capacity of the Technical and Vocational Education Technology (TVET) sector and to support technology transfer that would enhance the productivity and competitiveness of the country’s industry and in particular, micro and small scale enterprises and to support result-oriented TVET system through research undertaking.
The Conference will introduce the Institute to the outside world, disseminating the Institute's resources and skillsets. The success of the Conference may open the way for funding support from a variety of sources, including government and non-governmental organizations, for research, community development initiatives, technology development and transfer, and so on. The location is in the centre of the county. As a result, everyone will find it easy to enter and visit the venue.
The Faculty of Electrical and Electronics and Information and Communication Technology (FoEETICT) was established in 2010. The faculty is divided into two departments: the Department of Electrical and Electronics Technology (EET) and the Department of Information and Communication Technology (ICT). The faculty has composed of Ethiopian Teachers, Indian, Chinese, and Filipino expatriates. The faculties are well trained and hold international skill level certificates in Industrial Control and Automation. A couple of faculties are trained in Advanced Automation through European Union. Some of the Ethiopian teachers are pursuing their PhD in China and Russia.
Electricity and electronics play an essential role in developing the energy, communication, and industrial and commercial sectors need a well-qualified workforce at all levels (skilled workers, technician, and engineers). Skilled workers work in installing, setting up, operating, maintaining and optimizing electrical and electronic devices, equipment, plant, and systems along with skilled workers from other fields or engineers. They might set up their own company too. Against this background, TVET teachers in the field of electrical electronics must professionally train the future workforce. The department laboratories are well equipped to train the candidates in the domains such as Industrial Automation, Pneumatic and hydraulic systems, Process control, Robotics and Electronics and communication.
Information Communication Technology plays an essential role in developing communication technology, and industrial and commercial sectors need a well-qualified workforce at all levels (skilled workers, technicians, and engineers). Skilled workers work in hardware and network maintenance and installation, database designing and web and multimedia authoring, and skilled workers from other fields or engineers. They might set up their own company too. Against these backgrounds, TVET teachers in the field of ICT must train the future workforce professionally.
Significance of the Conference
The primary function is to bring together people with similar interests throughout the country to learn, share ideas, and begin new initiatives. Mainly, The Conference aims to bring together academicians, researchers, teachers, trainers, doctoral and graduate students, and entrepreneurs with a cross-disciplinary interest in Electrical and Electronics/Robotics and Automation/Information and Communication Technologies to exchange and share their experiences, research findings and trends, as well as technology transfer and innovation. This Conference will offer original research, novel methods, demonstrations, tutorials, workshops and seminars, and discussions of practical experiences in various electrical and electronic engineering fields, robotics and Automation, and information and communication technologies. This Conference will allow young students and researchers to connect with subject-matter experts in their fields of study.
Conference participants will get the opportunity to meet with like-minded individuals and can learn about innovative ideas. To ease contact between members of various geographic regions who practice the same discipline or pursue the same area of study, Meetup brings together people from diverse places.
The Conference will feature original academic and professional papers on the theory, design, and implementation of electrical and electronic technologies, robotics and Automation, information and communications technology, demonstrations, tutorials, workshops, and industrial expert talks in various related domains.
This National Conference is intended to disseminate knowledge among the researchers in the country. The Conference is planned to promote the knowledge exchange through invited plenary talks, workshops, and industrial expert talks on Electrical, Electronics, Communication, Computing, and control technologies. At the start, the Conference is interested in bringing National-level experts. Some of the expertise is limited due to constraints in the Geolocations and availability of the resources. The Conference may connect the researchers in Government, private academic institutions, and industrial experts in public and private industries.
