A National Identification Number that will not verify. A tax portal that times out at the filing deadline. A government payment that leaves a beneficiary's account and never arrives. A health record that does not load when a patient needs it most.
None of these are software problems in the abstract. They are quality engineering problems: the discipline of deciding what could go wrong, before a citizen finds out the hard way.
Government Day exists because the systems carrying the most consequence in this country are often the ones tested the least formally. This is the session where that changes.
Newly released, and directly relevant to how your agency's digital projects will be assessed. Attend before your MDA has to comply with it, not after.
Nominated officers join by video link from their own desks nationwide. There is no budget line this requires and no office this excludes.
This session convenes NITDA, the regulators, and federal MDAs together, at the same table, on the same day. The agencies not in the room will be reading about it afterward.
This is a working session: testing standards, real case discussion, and a framework briefing, not a keynote-and-photograph formality.
Times shown in WAT.
Africa's first software testing book, sent to you digitally after the session.
A take-home reference summarising the NITDA Software Testing Framework, built for briefing your own agency leadership afterward.
Issued digitally within the week of the session.
The room, the floor for questions, and the relationships. Not a broadcast you watch, a table you sit at.
Government Day convenes the institutions setting the national standard for public-sector software quality. Your agency's participation is on the record from the start.
A direct invitation to continue the conversation at NSTW 2026's national summits.
A seat at the week's closing celebration, alongside industry leaders and award honorees.
