  • Upskilling Nigeria’s Lecturers

    Posted by Chris on March 15, 2025 at 8:45 pm

    Problem: Lecturers in Nigerian tertiary institutions lag behind in adopting modern technology, limiting their ability to deliver quality education and prepare students for a digital world.

    Solution: A company that provides Core Competency Credit Courses, offering periodic tech training to equip lecturers with essential skills, rewarding them with credits tied to career progression.

    How It Works:

    • Short, intensive courses (e.g., 20-30 hours) on tech skills like digital tools, online teaching, and data management.
    • Training delivered quarterly via in-person workshops or an online platform with interactive modules.
    • Lecturers earn credits per course completed, tracked digitally as a prerequisite for career advancement.
    • Institutions partner to integrate credits into promotion and pay structures, incentivizing participation.
    • Progress monitored with assessments and feedback to ensure real skill gains.

    Who It’s For: Lecturers lagging in tech skills, tertiary institutions aiming to modernize their faculty.

    Why It’s Cool: It could transform teaching quality by 50% and align Nigerian lecturers with global tech trends, boosting student outcomes too.

    Execution Hint: Launch with pilot programs at major universities like GUU, ABSU or UNILAG, partnering with TETFund, education ministries, and tech firms for funding and expertise.
