MTC has announced a collaboration with Inceptus, the commercial arm of the University of Namibia (UNAM), to supply the university’s students with monthly data.

According to the terms of arrangement, UNAM students will receive a SIM Starter pack with preloaded data upon registering with UNAM.

The data consist of 15 GB Internet data excluding social media and 40GB for all UNAM related data including meeting platforms such as Teams and Zoom.

“This partnership was born out of the need to increase access to information for students. As an institution, we realised that many students do not have internet facilities at home, as these are quite expensive for the average person. As a result, we were constantly exploring options with UNAM. This solution will provide internet access to UNAM students not only when on campus but in the comfort of their homes too” said John Haufiku, Public Relations Officer at UNAM.

According to Haufiku, the partnership will add value to Unam’s services, as the University regards access to the internet an essential part of higher education.

“It can improve the quality of education in many ways. It opens doorways to a wealth of information, knowledge and educational resources, increasing opportunities for learning beyond the traditional classroom,” he said.

MTC’s Chief Human Capital and Corporate Affairs Officer, Tim Ekandjo said, “As a homegrown digital enabler – our philosophy and strategy is to be the digital enabler of choice, that plays a role in the broader Namibian society, meeting customer specific needs. This offering with Inceptus for UNAM students is indicative of our ability to service Namibia with tailor made communication solutions.”

“This is not the only mutual partnership that UNAM is a beneficiary, as MTC has in the past given support to UNAM through Work Integrated Learning (WIL) program. Currently, the institution is a beneficiary of the MTC National Internship Program (MNIP), which assists students with practical three months paid (N$3000 per month) internship in the industry and community settings, helping them to graduate whilst at the same time preparing them for the job market.”
