What you should know
The Federal Government is enabling 3MTT program participants in several ways, including the Innovation Challenge, to train 3 million Nigerians.
While introducing the second batch of the program, Minister of Communications, Innovation, and Digital Economy Dr. Bosun Tijani revealed that a sizable portion of fellows from the first cohort were being placed as interns across the nation.
Furthermore, he noted that all of the fellows from the first phase have reached a point where they would use what they have learned to put hackathons in their states, collaborating with peers to create solutions that highlight their areas of expertise.
Tijani stated that the government was investigating the potential of offering unemployment benefits to Nigerians taking part in the program, in addition to job placement.
The program’s second phase, which began on February 29 of this year, will accept 270,000 Nigerians, both young and elderly, as fellows for its second cohort. After the first 30,000 participants, this will bring the total to 10% of the 3 million.
