How We Started

Liberia LITSU was officially established in October 25, 2015 as a Technology union in Liberia by a purposeful young ICT student called Willie Bee Tingba, Jr. A student of the United Methodist University (UMU) and later, he encouraged student Foldestine Paye of the Blue Crest university and few other guys from various ICT institutions in Liberia to join him on the revolution. LITSU Members have the opportunity to run for elected office, assist in a community project, explore career choices, receive recognition and prestige through local and national programs with competitive events and awards, and expand their knowledge of technology and its application in today’s world.

LITSU chapter activities are designed to provide an opportunity for growth and learning in the classroom, laboratory, school, and/or community. Participation in LITSU programs and activities is an integral part of Technology Education.

Our Creed

“We believe that Technology Education holds an important place in our life in the technical world. We believe there is a need for the development of good attitudes concerning work, tools, materials, experimentation and processes of industry.” “Guided by our teachers, artisans from industry, and our own initiative, we will strive to do our best in making my school, community, and nation better places in which to live.” “We will accept the responsibilities that are ours. We will accept the theories that are supported by proper evidence. We will explore on our own for safer, more effective methods of working and living.” “We will strive to develop a cooperative attitude and will exercise tact and respect for other individuals.” “Through the work of our hands and mind, we will express our ideas to the best of our ability.” “We will make it our goal to do better each day the task before us, and to be steadfast in our belief in our God and our fellow Liberians.”
