Unlock Initiative: 2k Applicants Nationwide To Get Vocational Training
The Federal Government is set to train 2000 applicants of the Unlock Initiative on Vocational Training. Read details below:
The UNLOCK initiative, facilitated by the Office of Technical, Vocational, and Entrepreneurship Education under the Presidency, has announced that it has begun the screening process to select 2000 participants for its first cohort of nationwide vocational training from a pool of over 10000 entries received as at the close of the application period on February 29, 2024.
This program is part of President Bola Tinubu’'s administration's efforts to foster entrepreneurship across the nation and aligns with the broader vision of the Renewed Hope agenda to nurture untapped talents in Nigeria, irrespective of gender, age, background, or literacy level.
The UNLOCK program is aimed at inclusively reaching out to artisans, technicians, and vocational trainees from every corner of Nigeria. The 2,000 selected individuals who will be trained in two phases of 1,000participants each, will embark on a transformative two-week virtual entrepreneurship training program that has been carefully designed to impart essential skills and provide valuable toolkits to participants upon completion.
UNLOCK is dedicated to unleashing the hidden technical and entrepreneurial capabilities within individuals, enabling their significant contributions towards national economic growth and their advancement.
