Education & Skills

Youth Skills & Employability Programme

Trade skills and apprenticeships that end in a real job.

What it does

Practical trade and vocational training for young people, paired with apprenticeships and active help finding work at the end of it.

Training that leads nowhere is training wasted, so placement is built into the programme rather than left to chance.

Who it is for

Young people aged approximately 15 to 24, particularly those who left school without a qualification.

What success looks like

The young person is certified and in work.

Where it operates

The FCT–Nasarawa–Keffi corridor, where the Foundation already operates. Locations are confirmed at launch.

How it is delivered

To be delivered with training institutions and employers. Nasarawa State College of Health is a current partner in education, awareness and empowerment for students.

Where education ends and livelihoods begin

If the measured outcome is learning or certification, the person is supported under Pillar One. If the measured outcome is income or enterprise, they move to Pillar Two.

The rule is simple, it is applied consistently, and it prevents the same person being counted twice in our reported figures.
