Albedo Design school in partnership with experts in the design industry and the support of Kaduna State Government is happy to bring you the maiden edition of its Skills Acquisition Program, this December in Kaduna.
Statistics show that Nigeria has over 50% of its population under the youth banner, this translates to a viable workforce of people who can trigger a ripple effect of economic growth.
Skills acquisition has positioned itself as a feasible economic solution to the increasing dependency on oil revenue and government handouts. There is a need to transform the youth into skilled professionals due to the rising number of unemployed people in Nigeria. This is a defining factor in eliminating unemployment and fostering economic growth. Developed countries have embraced indigenous production and this has consequently strengthened their economies showing a low percentage of government job dependence against private-owned business.
The School is deeply involved in the National campaign to encourage people to harness their creativity and utilize locally sourced materials while producing goods or product. It is as a result of our passion that we have developed building and construction finishing courses that not only work for the formally educated persons but for the uneducated as well.
This workshop aims at giving participants the basic knowledge and financial knowhow in home décor crafts, event planning using local materials, foundation in design, screeding and painting, small business management skills. We have incorporated a lot of practical sessions, team bonding and leadership exercises to inspire their creativity and fine tune existing skills.
The six day intensive workshop, with the support of the Kaduna State Government, our partners and sponsors that are passionate about youth education and empowerment, is priced at N15,000.00 (Fifteen Thousand Naira Only), this will cover material costs and overheads, monitoring and evaluation.
Monitoring and Evaluation is an integral part of project management. As a result the School places emphasis on its M&E programme where the beneficiaries are able to identify the do’s and don’ts of their assignments.
