Conclase Academy, an online tech academy, is empowering university students across Nigeria with the launch of UniAccelerate.
The innovative programme offers a 50 per cent discount on high-demand tech skills training, helping students to fast-track the time between graduation and landing their dream tech job.
The UniAccelerate initiative was borne out of the need to improve the quality of tech talents and innovations in Africa.
According to Adeposi Bamiduro, founder of Conclase Academy, “UniAccelerate is our response to a growing need. With tech becoming a normal part of our daily lives, it is important to ensure Africans are part of conversations where the future is being shaped by tech.
“However, the tech industry faces a significant skills gap. Tech isn’t being taught in our schools. Students first graduate before learning the skills that make them employable in the tech job market; that is precious time being wasted. This is why we have created the UniAccelerate programme.”
She stated that Conclase Academy, known for its world-class, fully virtual, tutor-led, tech education, aims to empower young Africans venturing into tech or trying to learn new tech skills with an intensive tech training boot camp, adding that the academy offers its students the ability to master in-demand skills with ease, choose from 10 high-demand courses, including the new Cybersecurity, Data Analytics, Flutter, and DevOps.
Bamiduro added that it will ensure that students learn from the best through training by industry experts who will guide them every step of the way, as well as fast track their tech career.
“This initiative allows Africans, starting with Nigeria, to gain a significant advantage in the competitive tech job market. Students from all universities in Nigeria with a valid student ID are eligible for UniAccelerate.
“Conclase Academy started with a mission to break down barriers for aspiring African tech professionals. Today, it’s a thriving community that empowers learners and businesses with the skills they need to excel in the ever-evolving tech landscape.”
Since its inception in 2022, the founder noted that Conclase Academy has successfully trained over 500 students with a 95 per cent hiring rate; making it the perfect launchpad for tech career.
“The application for the Conclase Academy Cohort six session is now open for students who want to learn Cybersecurity, Frontend Engineering, Backend Engineering, DevOps Engineering, Data Analysis, Product Management, Product Design, Flutter, Software Quality Assurance, or SAP.
“University students looking to learn a tech skill at an affordable price, can apply and get started on their tech career on https://conclaseacademy.com/uni-accelerate,” she said.
