Our schools in Nigeria, do not teach students to become self sufficient, that's a major problem, they only produce employees to saturate our streets - helplessly looking for how to survive after investing years of hard work in getting a good certificate. It's our collective responsibility as good Nigerians to fix this problem. Waiting for govt to fix our educational system is hopeless.

Even students who have the initiative to learn self sufficient skills while in school suffer a lot and are not encouraged at all cos they have to take up several jobs just to get money to pay for practical experience outside school, and then miss lectures or get poor grades because of the stress of hustling and learning outside school.

For example, the ideal engineering school is meant to train engineers with relevant theory and real world practicals, but this is not the case in most schools in Nigeria. In the end, our schools produce electrical engineers that can't differentiate between live and neutral wire, mechanical engineers that can't differentiate between spanner and pliers, no need to go on with more examples, for you may already know more examples than I can think of.

If we continue like this, we will never, I repeat, we will never be able to excel economically in this country. Why? Because we are in a time when the wealthiest nations are no longer the ones that tap the resources under the feet of its people, but the ones that tap the resources between the ears of its people. Incase, you didn't know this, here's some breaking news for you... "Oil has failed us! Some oil company CEOs are already
thinking of buying electric cars"

What we can do is to make efforts to provide free and accessible online training for these students who have the initiative to learn to become self employed, so they can eventually employ the ones that have employee in their DNA, cos everybody is different. There's only a handful of students we can reach via live seminars, and most students in this Instagram and Facebook generation already have internet in their blood.

So we've created a website with video courses that can teach even a market woman how to build electronics and software products and there's plenty of other skills to learn from other great volunteers to this noble cause. Such as ethics & moral values, better English, financial education, profitable skills etc.

This is not only about students, it applies to every living person who needs a way to survive. Let me give you an example, many condemned convicts waiting on the death roll are actually innocent and a slight mistake can land you in prison. So rehabilitating or keeping the mind of the prisoners in good state is also as necessary as the prison consequence, cos If these inmates are not well rehabilitated, the society stands more risk when they eventually gain their freedom. Again we wait for the govt to handle their rehabilitation, special announcement!... "they don't do a good job!"

What we can do for them is "intellectual rehabilitation", what if we send flash drives and dvds containing video courses to prison rehab centers
to empower inmates with skills, so when they come out, they will have one more option for survival, and with our prayers God can touch their hearts to take the option of using the skill they learnt in prison to survive, instead of killing or stealing or revenging their innocence.


So... Are you a student? Compliment your university courses with real world practical skills all for free online, such as 3D automotive design, solar inverter design, PDMS or Hysys for chemical plant design and simulations, electronic design, micro-controller programming etc.

Want to become an entrepreneur? Learn valuable skills such as business development, electronics design and manufacturing all free online.

Do you want to be a sponsor? We need sponsors to help us keep the system alive.

NOTE: For people who don't have internet, we have all courses in flash drives and DVDs and can send to anywhere within Nigeria.
