Roche Mogorosi

Chief Director – Schools Technology Support Services, Gauteng Department of Education, South Africa

Mr Roche Mogorosi is Chief Director of Schools Technology Support Services at the Gauteng Department of Education in South Africa. He holds a National Diploma in Information Technology from the former Technikon Northern Gauteng (now TUT), an MBA from the Tshwane University of Technology Business School and a Master’s of Management Degree in Public Sector Monitoring and Evaluation from the University of the Witwatersrand in South Africa.  

As part of his role, Roche is responsible for a programme to roll out ICT connectivity, learner devices and LED Boards that are preloaded with eContent to more than 2,000 schools in the province of Gauteng in South Africa. He works closely with government agencies and private sector providers. 

Current challenges Roche is hoping to explore in the fellowship include developing a coherent e-learning strategy and roadmap which support the holistic implementation of technology. He is most interested in the module focussed on policy development. 

“I hope that my colleagues will benefit from my gained experience and knowledge that can potentially be transferred to other programmes.”
