Why do i need to take programs as models, can't i take just a technical skill e.g project management, Why GCP?
Here is the thing.
There is an employability Formula in 2024!
It is not by carrying the title “project manager”
Your academic qualification is also 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., product management, digital marketing, project, etc which we offer in our technical school)
- 35% experience (work or volunteering).
Score yourself in the above; what is your score?
Your Academic certificate + a course on project management will only give you 35%.
If you can’t score 70% of the above, then YOU NEED the WFS PROGRAM combined with any technical skills you choose below.
I know you can get technical skills like coding, digital marketing, data analysis, product management, cybersecurity, etc. elsewhere.
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 (SOFTS SKILLS) 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.
WFS is your passport to remote global work.”
Check out the curriculum below.
YOU NEED IT!
If you say you do not NEED the SOFT SKILLS, that is fine!

Why Choose Our Employability Academy?
- DO AS I DO PROGRAMS: All trainings are hands-on—enough of theory. You already did that in school and still lack employability skills. Should we have a social media project requiring images, we give it to you. We teach you the design software needed to execute the task. No pilling up of learning till exam time.
- GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES: Given my experience working globally and remotely twice, one of which was as a global program coordinator at the Museum for the United Nations, and my several years of teaching 300+ professionals from 10+ countries how to secure opportunities such as jobs, no one is better to teach you about getting employed globally than me, Dr. Aderinsola Adio-Adepoju. In some tracks of this program, we teach you how to search for global jobs.
- FACILITATORS ARE PROFESSIONALS: Skilled For Work is not a theory-focused school. You learn directly from professionals or founders who have done it/are doing it, and you also carry out projects while on the program.
- WORK PLACEMENT: At the end of the program, you have a job placement internship with our partner hubs to try out what you have learned. This applies to the PRO and Immersion models.
- OUR CURRICULUM: We continuously review our curriculum to stay ahead of trends and what is obtainable in the market. One of the known problems of the conventional tertiary institution is an outdated curriculum, and we are NOT going that route.
- CERTIFICATION: At the end of the program, you will be issued a certificate stating you are experienced and have worked in a real-life work environment. This helps a potential employer believe in you and increases your chances over others in the job market.
- LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION TO EMPLOYERS: If you take the GCP PRO model, which includes an internship, our partners with whom you interned will give you a recommendation letter. You can present this to employers.
- ALUMNI JOB OPPORTUNITIES COMMUNITY: At the end of the program, we add you as a BONUS to our alumni community, where various global opportunities are shared and networking occurs.
WHAT IS THE LEARNING PROCESS AT THE SKILLED FOR WORK ACADEMY?
It is beyond a course; it is a comprehensive program. How you learn 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 at the SFW.
1) COURSE WORK
The online school’s lessons are taken in modules. 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 support and answer your questions.
5) LIVE SESSIONS
Live group interactive learning sessions. We will hold at least 2 live workshops per program 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 workshops before the end of the coursework, where you work with teams or in groups on projects.
6) PEER GROUP ACCOUNTABILITY
No one must be left behind. We understand we move at different paces. In week 2 or 3 of your program, we break you down into smaller groups, where you have smaller group meetings and learning time with your accountability group members. This fosters peer-to-peer learning.
7) ALUMNI JOB BOARD COMMUNITY
We have an alumni community with a community manager and activities that provide you with BONUS support, job opportunities, alumni interactions, and networking. Note that it is independent of the program.
It is a bonus for all alumni
8) INTERNSHIP
Depending on the model you sign up for (PRO and IMMERSION), you will be assigned to a partner organisation to intern.
Do I Get A Certificate After The Program?
