The TCKZone Youth Employability and Entrepreneurship Fellowship (TYEEF) is a 4-week intensive digital and entrepreneurship skills training program designed to equip underserved youth in Nigeria with the competencies needed to thrive in the digital economy. Targeting youth aged 18–30, the program addresses the pressing issues of youth unemployment and lack of access to practical, market-relevant skills.
Through a blended learning model, TYEEF will provide 40 selected participants with hands-on training in digital skills (such as digital marketing, content creation, and freelancing), business development, personal branding, and soft skills. The program will also offer mentorship from experienced professionals, interactive masterclasses, and seed funding opportunities for outstanding participants.
By the end of the program, participants will have developed income-generating projects, enhanced their employability, and improved their capacity to launch or grow entrepreneurial ventures. The initiative contributes to national and continental goals of reducing youth unemployment, fostering innovation, and empowering the next generation of African changemakers.
