Other Programs

Location: Nigeria

our Accelerated Computer Education (ACE) Project is a new initiative from one of our volunteers which aims to fast track computer education of Nigeria’s teeming IT-illiterate young population. By providing quality and affordable IT education, we believe we can save our Nation from low productivity and high unemployment figures caused by lack of relevant computer education. This we aim to achieve by partnering we major IT-Education institutes, so that they can reduce their fees by at least 20%. We would then go an extra mile to market those programs to our target population (senior secondary students, university undergraduates, corps members and unemployed graduates). Funds are also going to be raised from NGOs and private institutions to further subsidize the program. This program also includes compulsory leadership training for all the participants. Pioneer IT courses are AutoCAD, Desktop Publishing, Web-design & Development and Computer Engineering & Networking. We believe that the world is now moving at a very fast pace on the wheels of technology, and Nigeria cannot afford to be left behind.
