No prior technical or professional background is required. The program is designed to build comprehensive mastery from the ground up — not just foundations. Learners choose a specific track that aligns with their career goals: • Technical tracks (such as engineering, data, cloud, or AI) • Non‑technical tracks (such as operations, customer success, communication, or media) Alongside your chosen specialization, every learner develops soft skills (collaboration, communication, problem‑solving, leadership) and AI‑native intelligence, ensuring you’re equipped to excel whether you’re a fresh graduate or pivoting into a new industry.

You can complete your application online for free in just 2–4 minutes. Choose your preferred track — technical or non‑technical — and select the program that best aligns with your career path. All applications are reviewed, and successful candidates are invited to our Readiness Assessment. This structured evaluation measures commitment, aptitude, problem‑solving ability, and drive. The assessment is conducted both in‑person and online. Learners who demonstrate readiness and intent are then selected to join the cohort.

No. For this cohort, the program is offered as a fully sponsored scholarship. You don’t pay upfront fees. Instead, once you’re matched to an organization and begin earning, you gradually repay the scholarship investment from your salary.

Learners benefit from: • Hands‑on, project‑based learning that mirrors real organizational challenges. • Our proprietary AI‑driven learning infrastructure, which adapts to your progress and accelerates mastery. • Soft skills development in collaboration, communication, problem‑solving, leadership, and more. • AI‑native intelligence training, ensuring you can integrate AI seamlessly into your work. • Workforce Readiness Centres in Lagos, Abuja, and Enugu, equipped with laptops and high‑speed internet access.

The program is hybrid. This cohort runs in Lagos, Abuja, and Enugu, with learners attending sessions at our Workforce Readiness Centres three times weekly. Outside of centre hours, training continues online through our proprietary AI‑driven learning platform, which adapts to your progress and specialization. This blend gives you the collaboration of in‑person learning and the flexibility of AI‑powered online study, preparing you to perform at industry speed.

After certification, you enter the work experience phase where you’re matched to an organization. You’ll apply your specialization in real projects, earn a competitive salary, and gradually repay your scholarship investment. This cycle ensures sustainability while giving you a clear career pathway.

The actual program cost varies depending on the track, typically between ₦350,000 – ₦650,000. Thanks to sponsorship, learners in this cohort benefit from a scholarship that covers these upfront fees.

Bildup AI follows a shared success model. For this cohort, the program is offered as a full scholarship, covering all upfront fees. Once learners are matched to an organization and begin earning a salary, they gradually repay the scholarship investment in affordable installments. These repayments are then reinvested to train future cohorts, ensuring the program remains sustainable and accessible.

Our program is unique because it combines: • Core mastery — universal foundations across both technical and non‑technical tracks. • Soft skills development — collaboration, communication, leadership, and more. • AI‑native intelligence — embedding intelligent behaviors into systems and workflows. • Practical learning — project‑based training that mirrors real organizational challenges. • Execution speed — graduates deliver in weeks what typically takes teams months. This blend ensures graduates are not just trained — they’re workforce‑ready, industry‑aligned, and innovation‑driven.

AI is now the backbone of modern work across all sectors. Our graduates don’t just learn traditional skills — they master AI‑native intelligence, enabling them to deliver in weeks what typically takes teams months. This applies equally to technical roles (engineering, data, cloud) and non‑technical roles (operations, customer success, communication, media).

Once you graduate and transition into full employment through the paid work experience phase, your earnings will vary by track, background, and organization: Non‑technical tracks • Entry‑level learners: ₦300,000 – ₦700,000 per month • Learners with prior job experience: ₦400,000 – ₦1,000,000+ per month Technical tracks • Entry‑level learners: ₦450,000 – ₦800,000 per month • Learners with prior job experience: ₦600,000 – ₦1,500,000+ per month
