History of Maxim Nyansa Nigeria
We are NGO with focus on education and ICT. Our aim is to equip young Nigerians for career possibilities with the use of information technology. Our vision is to launch learning transformation and training programs in Nigeria to equip young people with 21st-century skills. We train young IT graduates practically to prepare them for the job and we encourage schools to implement IT and 21st century skills in their curriculum and teaching methodologies. We offer integrated IT solutions to create career perspectives:
- Learning transformation programs for schools.
- Bootcamps for young IT graduates.
- Vocational IT training for young potentials.
- Enable Numeracy, Literacy, and ICT Education (ENLITE) Training
Maxim Nyansa Nigeria was founded in January 2021 and our office was opened. Our Country Director has previously visited Ghana in November 2020 to study their activities. We have started with the learning transformation programs in Nigeria and have executed it in a few schools. We hope to increase our impact by adding bootcamps and international IT certification for young ICT graduates in a short while.
