WORKPLACE FOUNDATIONAL SKILLS PROGRAM
Is this for me?
Yes, it is if you want to have the digital, soft, and life skills no one talks about, but you need to be efficient in the 21st-century work environment.
You will need this as an
- Entrepreneur
- Working professional who has not upskilled
- Artisan
- Fresh graduate pursuing a career in the industry
- Fresh graduate pursuing a career in academics
You will need it, especially when you do not know the essential skills, software and tools!
This is why we call it the
WORKPLACE FOUNDATIONAL SKILLS PROGRAM
What You Will Learn (Our Curriculum)
why do you need this? why do you need soft skills?
I know you have gone to school.
Here is the thing.
YOUR ACADEMIC QUALIFICATION IS ONLY 5% of what employers are looking for in the emerging job market.
The formula of what you need to get jobs is
5:30:30:35
Here is what it means.
- 5% educational degree,
- 30% soft skills (what we covered in the workplace foundational skills program at the Skilled For Work Academy)
- 30 % hard/technical skills (e.g., website development, digital marketing)
- 35% experience (work or volunteering).
Score yourself in the above; what is your score?
If you can’t score 70% of the above, then YOU NEED THIS!
I know you can get technical skills like coding, digital marketing, data analysis, product management, cybersecurity, etc. elsewhere.
But that is also 30% of what you need.
THE SOFT SKILLS YOU NEED ARE NOT TAUGHT IN THE UNIVERSITY, NOR DOES YOUR EMPLOYER HAVE THE PATIENCE TO TEACH YOU.
What is worse?
That YouTube video you have watched also doesn’t have it.
That other course you are about to buy or MSC you are about to get Doesn’t Have it.
The WORKPLACE FOUNDATIONAL SKILLS PROGRAM IS ONE OF ITS KIND.
You will not find this curriculum elsewhere.
Should you find it, it would be 10 times the money we are charging you now.
what is my investment fee?
₦ 37,625 or $40 or GHS 290
How Does This Work?
Lessons are pre-recorded videos that you can watch at any time of the day.
With 1 hour daily, you will be able to learn and implement.
Only the workshops are live 4 times in 6 weeks at 5-7 pm (WAT).

why choose us?
Tested Curriculum
An educator, design-thinking expert/innovator and employer of labour designed the academy curriculum using the practical needs of a typical tech-enabled organization. This makes it relevant to the needs of a 21st-century employee starting a career or transitioning into another job. This curriculum, developed across three years, was tested across various demographics comprising high school leavers as young as 17, undergraduates, recent graduates, postgraduates, stay-at-home mums, MSc holders, artisans, and women who took career breaks.
Supportive Community
For the foundational program, there will be three live Zoom sessions. Additionally, there will be a bi-monthly 2-hour Zoom training sessions for the hard skills. This means that there will be four live sessions spread across eight weeks.
Networking Opportunities
Our course provides ample networking opportunities to connect with peers and industry professionals. You’ll have the chance to join our community group of over 100+ where global opportunities are shared.
what is the process of learning in sfw?
How you learn or deliver your learning plays a significant role in how quickly you absorb the knowledge, how quickly you can implement it, and how quickly you get that desired job.
Here is our six-step approach.
1) COURSE WORK
Lessons are taken in modules in the online school. Each lesson is 5-20 minutes long. Each course has 5-10 modules, with an average of 5 classes per module. Yes, we like to keep it simple.
2) PROJECTS
Projects/assignments are taken after each module. Depending on what you learned in the lesson, we give you a short practical project to practice with.
3) QUIZ
Quizzes will be taken at intervals during the modules to ensure you understand what you are learning. No, we don’t want that exam kind of mindset here; after all, we are more concerned about your ability to use the skills on the job, not a paper saying you can do it.
4) SUPPORT COMMUNITY
You will be in a support community with other learners and an advisor who will provide support and answer your questions.
5) LIVE SESSIONS
Live group interactive learning sessions. We will hold bimonthly group sessions where you can go into breakout rooms to work collaboratively with other group members. This will foster an agile work culture where you need to work remotely. You will have 1-8 (depending on your model) Zoom classes before the end of the coursework, where you work with teams or in groups on projects.
6) INTERSHIP
Depending on the model you sign up for (PRO and IMMERSION), you will be assigned to a partner organization to intern.
