Info Timor has a commitment to community education to encourage awareness of the significant benefits of social and economic inclusion in building a civil and democratic society.
This is done in a variety of ways.
Projects developed and delivered by Info Timor will increase social and economic participation in order to contribute to an inclusive society that values the sustainable livelihood and happiness of every individual.
Info Timor is committed to cooperation and support in any not-for-profit project, whether an independent project, a joint project, a project with a specialised focus or a broad focus. The one qualification is that a project aim must be to increase social health.
There are three core areas of activity:
Info Timor is a Registered Training Organisation in Timor Leste and also delivers Internationally Certified Cisco network training.
Info Timor has computer training facilities in Dili, Baucau, Suai, Liquica and Baguia. Over 2,000 people have undertaken computer training provided by Info Timor’s qualified training team.
Info Timor is a registered training provider with SEPFOPE, the Timorese Government training authority, and will be accredited to deliver Certificate 1 and Certificate 2 in Technology.

The Info Timor training team have completed Certificate based training and have also had to complete training in computer hardware and maintenance so that they can assist with any questions during a training session.
Info Timor also provides hands on training in hardware maintenance. This training requires participants to spend up to three months working in the Info Timor workshop working along side the Info Timor technicians. This delivers a very practical, hands on training program that when completed the participants can return to their community and provide a high standard of IT support.
One of the main activities of Info Timor is the remanufacturing of high-end computers. This work is carried out in the Info Timor workshops in Dili, Baucau, Suai, and Liquica.
Info Timor workshops are staffed by certified computer technicians who have undertaken the Cisco IT Essentials training program.
The computer refurbishment process ensures every computer is thoroughly checked and installed with quality operating software and applications.
The computers are sourced from Australian businesses that are upgrading their technology and shipped to Timor Leste coordinated by Info Timor’s Australian partner xpand Foundation.
The computers are sold on a cost recovery basis to organisations, schools, community groups and NGO’s. Income generated is used to pay wages of the Info Timor Technicians and cover operational overheads.
This has allowed communities and individuals to access quality affordable computers where they otherwise would not be able too. All of the Info Timor computers are supplied with a warranty.
People who purchase a computer can participate in the Info Timor computer basics training program to gain the skills required to become proficient in using a computer.
Info Timor currently employs eight technicians in its four workshop in Dili, Baucau, Suai and Liquica.
