The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of the computer training program for the first year undergraduate students on their academic performance. s, the results show that the odds ratio of all the variables except previous knowledge of computer and IT is greater than 1 (that is, odds>1). This means that the log odds of enhancing the academic performance of students who attended the computer literacy training are higher. This, therefore, implies that the probability of enhancing the academic performance of students who attended the training is higher than those who did not.
