Dorcas SITEKE ADONGISILA

Born in Kinshasa, I did my primary and secondary education at the Mont-Amba school. I continued my humanities studies at the MASINA industrial technical institute, also in Kinshasa. In 2015, I continued my studies at the University of Kinshasa in the Faculty of Science, Department of Mathematics and Computer Science in Kinshasa, where I obtained my bachelor's degree in computer engineering.

My journey to a successful career began when I joined Inspirat Technology Sarl as an IT Help Desk in 2018. After two years of productive collaboration, I chose to resign in order to focus on my higher education studies.

In 2019, I founded Welali-Tech, a platform offering practical IT training, which enabled me to hone my skills in designing and delivering educational programmes tailored to users' specific needs.

In 2022, I was selected to take part in the training of trainers for the African Girls Can Code Initiative (AGCCI) programme in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. This gave me the opportunity to pass on my knowledge and empower young girls in the appropriate use of digital technologies. I currently work as a part-time trainer and consultant for UN Women DRC.

Continuing my career path, I also held the position of full-time IT Help Desk and Digital Trainer at E-Business Afrika Sarl in 2022. This role gave me the opportunity to provide comprehensive IT solutions to large companies, government institutions, start-ups, small and medium-sized enterprises and individuals. Thanks to these diverse experiences.
