Launch of education ministry’s Own Your Own Device Programme delayed

KINGSTON, Jamaica — The Ministry of Education, Youth and Information says the launch of the application process system for the Own Your Own Device (OYOD) Incentive Programme has been delayed due to technical issues.

The ministry also extended its apologies.
