What our graduates say about their learning experience
“I was honest about my starting point — I barely used a computer beyond email. After the Computing Basics programme I am comfortable with spreadsheets, presentations, and managing files across cloud storage. My colleagues now ask me for help. That reversal alone says everything about what the programme delivered.”
Akosua Tawiah
Administrative Officer · Ghana Education Service, Central Region
“The Zoho Finance course was practical from day one. We implemented Zoho Books for our company during the course itself — the instructor walked us through the configuration in real time. By week three we had retired our manual ledger. The ongoing support from the Pinuno team after the course ended was unexpected and very much appreciated.”
Nana Adu-Boahen
Finance Manager · Ecohealth Logistics, Kumasi
“I used to track everything in spreadsheets — orders, clients, follow-ups. After the Zoho CRM course I moved the whole business onto CRM and Books. The difference in visibility is enormous. I know which clients I haven't followed up with, which invoices are outstanding, and how each month compares to the last.”
Ama Koomson
Business Owner · Ama's Catering, Cape Coast
“Running all three WSO2 courses — API Manager, Micro Integrator, and Identity Server — back to back gave me an end-to-end view of the platform that I had not found in any other structured training. I now offer WSO2 consulting professionally.”
Kweku Boateng
Solutions Architect · Independent Consultant, Accra
“We sent three members of our IT team through the WSO2 Micro Integrator course. All three are now contributing to our enterprise integration project, which previously depended entirely on external consultants. The return on the training investment was clear within one quarter.”
Yaa Darko
Middleware Architect · Ashesi University, Berekuso
“I sat the WSO2 API Manager Developer exam after completing the course and passed on the first attempt. The exam preparation sessions were thorough — every domain on the syllabus was covered, with practice questions that matched the real exam style closely. I would not have been confident going in without this programme.”
Emmanuel Asiedu
Integration Engineer · Fidelity Bank Ghana, Accra
“As someone working in public sector IT, I needed to modernise skills without disrupting my work schedule. Pinuno's fully online delivery was the deciding factor. The pace was demanding but manageable, and the instructors were available on WhatsApp when I got stuck. I now maintain the assembly's internal portal.”
Efua Mensah
IT Officer · Municipal Assembly, Central Region
“The advance PHP course covered topics I had struggled to find structured material on — dependency injection, middleware, event-driven design. My employer noticed the difference immediately. I was assigned to lead the API layer of a new product within two months of completing the programme.”
Kofi Asante
Software Developer · TechBridge Ghana, Tema
“I came to Pinuno Academy with a background in MS Office and basic HTML. After completing the PHP Development programme, I built and launched a booking system for a client in Kumasi entirely on my own. The Laravel module was the highlight — understanding how the framework behind the Academy's own site worked made the whole thing click.”

Consultancy & Development Clients
Organisations that engaged Pinuno for software delivery and staff augmentation
“Pinuno migrated our legacy tracking system to a modern PHP API and built a mobile-friendly driver interface on top. The project involved our third-party logistics partner's API, which had poor documentation. The Pinuno team figured it out, wrote their own client library, and handed it over to us. Problem-solving beyond the spec sheet.”
Obeng Darko
Operations Director · Coastal Freight Ltd, Takoradi
“We needed WSO2 expertise urgently for a regulatory integration deadline. Pinuno placed a consultant with us within five days. He was fully productive from week one, knew the platform deeply, and transferred knowledge to our in-house team so we were not dependent on the engagement continuing indefinitely. Exactly what staff augmentation should look like.”
Josephine Asante-Berko
Head of IT · Meridian Insurance, Accra
“We hired Pinuno to build our patient records portal from scratch. From requirements to go-live took fourteen weeks — on schedule, on budget, and without the hand-holding I had come to expect from software projects. The code was documented, the deployment was clean, and two years later we have not had a single critical bug.”
Richard Frempong
CEO · Panacea Health Solutions, Accra
