Online Computer Academy · Nairobi, Kenya

KLTE Africa Academy. Online computer lessons with a lecturer behind them.

Learn computer packages, programming and web development, or ethical hacking and cyber security from anywhere in Kenya. The lessons are practical and recorded so you move at your own pace, and when a topic gives you trouble your lecturer takes you through it personally.

What is KLTE Africa Academy?

KLTE Africa Academy is an online computer school based in Nairobi, Kenya, serving learners across Kenya and the wider African continent. We exist to make quality IT education reachable for anyone with an internet connection, with no campus, no commute and no fixed timetable.

Our courses run entirely online and entirely at your pace. You get video lessons and downloadable course notes, work through units in order, sit an exam at the end of each stage, and receive a certificate carrying a unique validation code and QR code once you have completed the lessons and passed the exams.

What separates us from a folder of videos is the lecturer. Every enrolled student can reach the person teaching the course and get help on the specific thing that is not making sense, which is the reason most of our learners finish what they start.

Direct lecturer support

Stuck on something? Ask the person who taught it.

Online learning usually breaks down at the same point. You hit a topic that will not click, there is nobody to ask, and the course quietly dies in your downloads folder. That does not happen here.

Every KLTE Africa student gets direct one on one support from their lecturer on the areas they are finding difficult. Send a message describing where you are stuck and you get help on that exact point, whether it is a written explanation, a worked example built on your own file, or a short online session walking through the step with you.

  • Message your lecturer directly on WhatsApp or by email, no ticket queue.
  • Help on your actual problem, on your own file, not a copied and pasted reply.
  • Zoom assistance arranged when a topic needs to be walked through properly.
  • Support stays open for as long as you are working through the course.

Inside the video classes

Frames from the recorded video lessons in our Computer Packages course, the track that covers Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Every other course is taught the same way, with the lecturer working on a real file while you watch.

How you actually learn

Whichever course you pick, it is built from the same four pieces.

Downloadable manuals

A full written manual for every module.

Download it, print it, keep it. The manual covers the same ground as the class in writing, so you are never stuck rewinding a video to find one step.

PDF and Word, yours to keep

Practical video classes

Recorded lessons where the work happens on screen.

Your lecturer works on a real file while explaining each move, so you learn by watching the job being done. Replay any lesson as many times as you need.

Watch at your own pace, replay anytime

Zoom assistance

A live session when a topic will not click.

Message your lecturer about the part giving you trouble and book a short Zoom session. You share your screen and get walked through it on your own file.

One on one, arranged around you

Tests and exams

Proof that the skill actually stuck.

Exams unlock as you move through the course and are marked by the teaching team. Each module also ships with a past paper so you can test yourself first.

Marked by your lecturer, not a script

We teach IT skills over the internet, from basic computer packages through programming and web development to ethical hacking and cyber security, and we issue a verifiable certificate when you finish a course.

What happens when I get stuck on a topic?

You message your lecturer and get help on that exact topic. Every enrolled learner gets one on one support, so instead of replaying a video and hoping it lands the second time you can ask for a written explanation, a worked example on your own file, or a short Zoom session on the step giving you trouble. Support runs on WhatsApp on +254 725 923 920 and by email on support@klteafrica.com.

What courses does KLTE Africa offer?

Three learning tracks: Basic Computer Courses (introduction to computers, operating systems, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, internet and online safety, basic maintenance), Programming Courses (programming fundamentals, databases, web design, desktop applications and Android or iOS mobile development), and Ethical Hacking and Cyber Security (system security, penetration testing and staying anonymous online).

Are the lessons practical or theory?

Practical. The computer packages track alone runs to 35 recorded practical lessons where the lecturer works on a real file on screen, from typing a first document to building charts and PivotTables in Excel. Each module also comes with a written manual and a final paper so you can test yourself before the exam.

Do I need to attend classes in person?

No. Every course is fully online and self-paced. You study from a computer, tablet or phone wherever you are, at whatever time suits you, and you keep access to the material so you can go back over lessons whenever you need to.

How do I pay for a course?

Choose a course, sign up with your details, and pay from your phone. Your login details are emailed to you as soon as the payment goes through.

Is the certificate recognised, and can employers check it?

Who can enrol at KLTE Africa Academy?

Anyone with an internet connection. The Basic Computer Courses assume no prior experience, so complete beginners are welcome, while the programming and cyber security tracks suit learners who want job-ready technical skills.
