Faculty Champion Voice “The Silverstoolers Student-Led Data Science Program builds confidence, leadership, and responsibility in the youth. I have seen students grow in character as well as in academics.”

Emmanuella, 17 years – Cohort 1 Alumna, Presby Senior High Technical School – Adukrom, Ghana

Silverstoolers Student-Led Data Science Program has really helped me take my first step into the world of data science and programming. I learned essential skills like teamwork, critical thinking (especially when fixing errors!), and project creation. Now, I can confidently build simple projects on my own 🥳 — all thanks to this program 😊.” ✳️ Identified for national student leadership opportunities and selected for a televised interview.

Asatta, 14 years – Cohort 2, Hilltop School, Liberia

"The Student-Led Data Science Program helped me learn how to analyze data and create nested and ordered lists. I also learned how to fix errors and organize files and folders. I now see how data science is useful for entrepreneurs and analysts—and I’m excited to explore more.”

“The Student-Led Data Science Program taught me how to structure data, understand data science, and fix errors in my code when something goes wrong.”

Dr. Daniella Delali Sedegah PhD – Dean of Students & Senior Lecturer, UESD, Ghana

School Leader Voice "The Student-Led Data Science Program has been very useful for our UESD (University of Envionment and Sustainable Development) students. By focusing on practical datasets and real-life modeling, this program has enhanced their problem-solving abilities and equipped them with hands-on experience that bridges the gap between theory and real-world application."

Samuel, 19 years – Cohort 2, University of Environment & Sustainable Development, Ghana

Event Spotlight – Data Science & AI Fair
"“I am grateful for the insightful workshops and mentorship sessions that were organized, as well as the maiden Silverstool/B.A.L.L.E Foundation Data Science & AI Fair. It was exciting throughout the preparation period up to the final day. A lot was learned during the process—it was tiring at some point, but ultimately fun, inspiring, and deeply educative. I’ve gained practical tools and knowledge that will help me build more responsible and ethical data science solutions."

Henrietta, 16 years – Student Leader Cohort 2, The Noble College@GlobalTell, Nigeria

"During our Global Tech Leader Mentor session with Mr. Martin Wischusen, VP at Electronic Arts (USA), I learned how important networking is and how to follow your own path. Hearing about his journey into programming inspired me to trust my conscience—it might lead to your dream.”
