SOF Work Experience and Skills Development Program (WESDEP)

With rising youth unemployment and underemployment levels, Nigeria produces over 500,000 graduates annually into the labor market. Despite this human capital, the employment and labor markets in public and private sector do not favor fresh graduates with limited experience and in most cases mismatched skill sets.

SOF WESDEP is a scalable learning model that expands employability, soft skills and work experience opportunities for young Nigerian graduates and non-graduates to prepare them for the labor market and provides a platform for leadership, management and personal development training.
