The State Coordinator of NYSC in Niger State, Mrs. Abdulwahab Olayinka, has officially launched the Skills Acquisition and Entrepreneurship Development (SAED) In-camp training for the 2024 Batch B Stream II at the Niger State Orientation Camp in Paiko.
In her address, Mrs. Abdulwahab emphasized the significance of the SAED initiative as a federal program designed to prepare corps members for the Nigerian job market by equipping them with essential entrepreneurship and practical skills. This training aims to foster self-reliance and support corps members in launching their own business ventures.
She noted that NYSC collaborates with funding platforms such as the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Bank of Industry (BOI), Kudi-Mata, Access Bank, and Unity Bank to provide business financing opportunities. Additionally, organizations like SON, CAC, and NAFDAC will offer lectures on business standardization and registration.
The Head of SAED, Mrs. Ajie Joy, introduced the program, highlighting its two main phases: in-camp and post-camp courses, and underscored the benefits for participants.
Ex-Corps Member Mrs. Promise Smart Oyekachi encouraged current corps members to acquire skills, while Mr. Kashim Yakubu from the National Directorate of Employment introduced the Entrepreneurship Development Program.
The event also featured an educational playlet performed by the SAED Committee Corps Members.
