When Okpala Chidi joined Edufun Technik as a National Youth Service Corps member, he was a recent graduate with minimal tech skills. Like many of his peers, he was uncertain about his career path in an increasingly digital world. However, his placement at Edufun Technik changed everything.
From day one, Chidi was immersed in Edufun Technikโs innovative learning environment. The hubโs commitment to empowering youth with digital skills was evident in its comprehensive curriculum and hands-on approach.
Over the course of six months, Chidiโs transformation was remarkable. He progressed from struggling with basic computer operations to confidently coding websites, managing digital marketing campaigns, and even exploring data analysis.
โEdufun Technik didnโt just teach me skills; they opened my eyes to a world of possibilities,โ Chidi says. โTheir approach helped me discover my passion for tech and gave me the confidence to pursue it.โ
Today, Chidi is not just tech-savvy; heโs become a mentor to new corps members and children, sharing his knowledge and inspiring others to embrace digital literacy. This success story is not unique to Chidi.
Edufun Technik has seen numerous corps members, initially lacking in tech skills, leave the hub with improved capabilities that significantly enhance their future prospects.
โOur goal is to bridge the digital divide and prepare Nigerian youth for the jobs of tomorrow,โ says Uchenna Onwuamagebu-Ugwu, founder of Edufun Technik. โWhen we see transformations like Chidiโs, we know weโre on the right track.โ
