A three-day workshop organized by the Direction Nationale de Contrôle et de la Préparation de Paie des Enseignants (DINACOPE) began on September 24, 2026, in Mwene-ditu, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The event, taking place at the Saint-Michael room of the coordination of Catholic convention schools, aims to upgrade the skills of DINACOPE agents and staff. The primary focus is on introducing computer tools for physical teacher monitoring.
The Director Provincial of DINACOPE Lomami 2, Mr. André Loshima Omatete, addressed the participants during the opening ceremony. He emphasized the importance of a high sense of responsibility in using computer tools during teacher monitoring. This will enable DINACOPE to provide the government with reliable data. The initiative is part of a broader effort to improve the education sector in the region.
The workshop in Mwene-ditu is the first of its kind, with more sessions planned in the coming days. Upcoming training sessions will be held in Luputa, the capital of Luilu Territory, and Ngandajika Territory. These sessions aim to equip more DINACOPE staff with the necessary skills to effectively monitor teachers using computer tools.
The introduction of computer tools for teacher monitoring is expected to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of the process. This development is part of the ongoing efforts to improve the education system in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. By leveraging technology, DINACOPE aims to streamline teacher monitoring and provide better data for informed decision-making.
