Background
The Nigeria GATEWAY Program is a 5-year initiative designed to equip young Nigerians, particularly women, persons with disabilities (PWDs), and other marginalized groups with the skills, tools, and infrastructure required to access meaningful and dignified gig work.
The program seeks to collaborate with qualified training providers to design and deliver high-quality, scalable, and inclusive training programs across multiple skill areas. These include Digital Marketing, UI/UX Design, Graphics Design, Video Production and Editing, General Gig Work Skills Training, Financial Management Training, and Business Management Training.
Courses will serve diverse learners, from beginners entering the digital and business space for the first time to intermediate-level practitioners seeking to strengthen employability and access to online gig work opportunities.
