Meta and Ingressive for Good are teaming up to provide scholarships to underprivileged youths from four African countries—Nigeria, South Africa, Côte d’Ivoire, and Kenya—so that they can launch successful digital careers and increase their earning potential.
Through this innovative collaboration, the industry’s growing need for digital marketing professionals will be met, and African youths will be given the skills and knowledge they need to compete on a global basis.
The digital marketing scholarship program, which is hosted on Coursera and was meticulously crafted by Meta and Aptly professionals, offers a thorough introduction to digital marketing that covers all of the main social media sites.
This is an amazing chance for learners worldwide to take advantage of this instruction.
Known for its significant efforts in Africa’s digital sector, Ingressive for Good has teamed up with Meta to develop a network of exceptionally talented individuals who will lead innovation and propel expansion in a variety of sectors.
After completing the program successfully, participants will go on to a life-changing 30-day bootcamp focused on job preparedness, where they will learn critical soft skills and have exclusive access to industry thought leaders for mentorship and advice.
Over thirty percent of the program’s graduates found jobs by the end of the program’s previous cohort. Some went on to start their marketing agency and build solid relationships in the community after receiving work placements.
Submissions for the scholarship program in digital marketing are now being accepted.
