The initiative is targeted at natives between the ages of 15 and 50 and aims to help graduate from high school and become community leaders.
Authorities hope the tablets will also help indigenous Colombians learn to read and write in Spanish, as well as in four native languages.
The educational material -- meant to complement classes and books -- is on the devices and therefore these do not need Internet access.
The initiative was announced by authorities in the country's eastern Guainia department, in the Amazon rainforest.
