About

ABOUT SAMEDI-INFORMATIQUE

USE YOUR SATURDAYS TO BECOME AN IT PROFESSIONAL

Hands-on training

Samedi-Informatique is a practical and career-focused training programme of AssistantPRO Academy, a vocational training centre approved by MINEFOP.

The programme helps students, workers, entrepreneurs and jobseekers use their Saturdays to develop real skills in IT and digital careers.

WHO WE ARE

Samedi-Informatique was created to make professional IT training accessible to people who study, work or manage other activities during the week.

Learners attend practical classes on Saturdays and continue their assignments, corrections and projects during the week.

Each pathway is designed to help the learner acquire a real skill, produce professional work and progressively become ready to serve companies, organisations or private clients.

A PROGRAMME OF ASSISTANTPRO ACADEMY

Samedi-Informatique is one of the professional training programmes developed by AssistantPRO Academy.

AssistantPRO Academy is a vocational training centre approved by MINEFOP. It provides practical training, short courses and professional qualification pathways.

Through Samedi-Informatique, the Academy provides training in web development, graphic design, video editing, office productivity, Excel and digital skills.

WHY SATURDAY?

Saturday offers students and workers an opportunity to build a professional skill without interrupting their studies or employment.

Instead of waiting until the end of university to gain practical experience, a learner can begin producing, serving clients and building a professional portfolio while still studying.

Several young learners begin offering services, carrying out assignments or supporting small clients before completing their university education.

Saturday Training

OUR MISSION

  • To transform Saturdays into opportunities for professional development.
  • To provide practical skills that learners can use at work, in business or in freelance activities.
  • To prepare learners to understand instructions, meet deadlines, complete projects and present professional work.
  • To connect training with the realities of companies, organisations and private clients.

OUR VISION

We want every learner to leave the programme with more than theoretical knowledge.

The learner must be able to produce, solve problems, use professional tools and provide a service.

Our ambition is to help more young people become employable, self-reliant and professionally active before or shortly after completing their studies.

NOTHING BUT PRACTICE

NOTHING BUT PRACTICE

Our approach is simple: learners develop their skills by practising, producing and receiving corrections.

Training includes exercises, assignments, professional projects, client briefs and workplace situations.

The objective is not simply to know a tool, but to know how to use it to respond to a real need.

LEARN FROM PROFESSIONALS IN THE FIELD

Samedi-Informatique training is delivered by professionals who already work in the fields they teach.

They share their tools, working methods, professional experience and knowledge of client expectations.

Learners therefore discover not only how to use software, but also how to organise their work and deliver quality results.

TRAINING SCHEDULE AND ORGANISATION

Training is available in person in Yaoundé and online through videoconferencing.

  • Morning Group: 8:30 AM – 12:30 PM
  • Afternoon Group: 1:00 PM – 5:00 PM
  • Practical classes are held every Saturday.
  • Assignments, corrections and learner follow-up continue during the week.

PROFESSIONAL IMMERSION

Learners may participate in a professional immersion activity in a company once a month, according to their training schedule.

This experience helps them discover workplace expectations, professional behaviour and the conditions under which assignments are completed.

Halfway through the programme, learners present their work to a client or professional reviewer.

  • Workers who want to improve their skills, advance or change careers.
