Question & answers

Digital Onboarders CDS

It is an established fact that “75% of Job Seekers that will get a job, will get a job with Micro Small and Medium Enterprises – MSME”. The MSME’s however, have been experiencing a downward decline in their survival rate, due to the lack of relevant skills to pivot into the emerging opportunities that the unfolding Digital Economy presents.

There is therefore an urgent need to mobilize the unique qualities of the Nigerian Youth, most especially, the Corps Members, to save our struggling Small Businesses.
