Learn Workplace Skills (Digital, Soft, Life & Tech) For Global Remote Work
can i get a job with just soft skills?
Yes, you can. Here are some jobs you can start after taking the WFS before proceeding to our technical school.
How do we know this?
The Workplace Foundational Soft Skills Program alone can get you a job, and you will succeed because Joy, Harvest, Conifdence, Mujib, Muinat, etc., got jobs with just soft skills.
Joy’s job is also remote. So yes, the job can also be remote.
Here are some job titles our students have gotten with only soft skills.
Scroll down to see their picture at the end of this page and the things they can do after the program.
I have a job, but I’m curious to know- Will this benefit me? If yes, how?
Yes, it is.
We recommend…. to everyone, including YOU.
From our experience, Over 80% of our WFS batch 1 – 6 students are working-class professionals with many years of experience.
They did not realize the soft skills they lacked that could improve their efficiency at work until they joined the WFS.
They named the program the Remote Workers Program.
If you are looking for a program that will give you transferable skills regardless of job role or field, our bestseller WFS is the way to go.
You can view the WFS curriculum below.
See what happened to Blessing in week 3 of the program.
Blessing had initially reached out to say she knew she was rusty and lacked something on her job but did not know what it was.
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 but here’s the thing.
YOUR ACADEMIC QUALIFICATION IS ONLY 5% of what employers are looking for in the emerging job market.
The formula you need to get jobs or bad jobs these days is
5:30:30:35
Here is what it means.
- 5% educational degree,
- 30% soft skills (what we covered in the workplace fundamental 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.
One more thing: check the Harvard statistics below.
what is my investment fee?
₦ 107,500 or $108 or GH¢ 1,707

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
- 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.
- 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 SFW Like?
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

Ijeaoms's Story - From Getting Paralyzed From An Accident, Losing Her Job, Getting Dead Broke, To Making Over 2 Million Naira While Still Taking The WFS 6- Week Program By Setting Up A Consulting Brand From Her Newly Aquired Skills And Experience
On November 13, at the offboarding session for batch 5 of students of the skilled for work WFS program, we heard the most humbling testimony from a student.
Hear from Ijeoma
“After losing my job, pausing my PhD, and being paralysed and hospitalised for over two years, I earned over 2 million naira within just six weeks through WFS” – Ijoema.
This 3-minute clip is an extract from the off-boarding session of WFS batch 5, which took place between 3 pm and 6.30 pm on November 13, 2024.
I first met her over 2 years ago. She was a professional with several years of experience, killing it in her space.
Ijeoma is a client who worked with me 2+ years ago. (She paid for my one-on-one LinkedIn optimisation program, now called GOP, so she was doing well.)
Imagine my shock when she said she couldn’t even afford the ₦37625 for WFS as when she paid us on Sept 30, but she asked her hubby to pay for her so she could at least join.
She joined the WFS program after the enrollment date had passed (Sept 30) after receiving multiple emails from us (I-Train Africa) about the program since February 2024.
You know what?
To watch the full clip, visit our YouTube channel (@itrainafrica) for the back story.
Watch the live session on YouTube from minutes 7-20 to get the full gist and backstory of how she got here. 👇
