This collaboration seeks to address the ongoing challenge of low employment rates among skilled professionals, despite the rapid growth of Nigeria’s digital ecosystem. Many Nigerian professionals with in-demand digital skills find it difficult to secure jobs in the global market.
Through this partnership, NITDA and Doballi aim to improve job placement rates by establishing a structured process that facilitates access to international remote employment opportunities.
Important Aspects of the Partnership
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) outlines specific roles for both parties:
- NITDA will provide a pipeline of trained and employable Nigerian tech professionals, ensuring their readiness for global job placements.
- Doballi will connect these professionals with international enterprises seeking top-tier African talent while waiving the $150 onboarding assessment fee for Nigerian applicants.
- Additionally, Doballi will provide an information pack detailing certification requirements and key industry demands.
- The company will also facilitate cross-cultural training and create a specialised dashboard for NITDA to track talent progress, employer feedback, and foreign currency transactions in Nigeria’s banking system.
