The YOE Internship Programme is designed to help address
national youth unemployment and enhance Nigeria’s future productive capacity.
Currently, about 55% of unemployed Nigerians are youth aged
15 – 34 years. This is indicative of an apparent gap in youth employability
that needs to be addressed.
Through the YOE Internship Programme, EnterpriseNGR seeks to
improve the employability of Nigerian youth. The Programme aims to improve the
skillsets, professional competence and employability of young graduates.
YOE participants will obtain invaluable workplace experience
and networking opportunities which will position them for meaningful career
journeys.
“We all know the difficulty young people face in finding
jobs. With YOE this will be a thing of the past” said Obi Ibekwe, CEO of
EnterpriseNGR.
“EnterpriseNGR is leveraging its reach to raise a network of
premium organizations that are willing to offer internship opportunities to
young Nigerian graduates.”
Employers participating in the YOE Internship Programme will
have the opportunity to guide and evaluate placed talent for 6 (six) months
before considering them for recruitment.
They will also be able to cost efficiently build a pipeline
of entry-level talent, reduce the size and scope of their orientation
programmes and improve the performance of their organizations by infusing fresh
academic knowledge, digitization and innovation into their systems.
The YOE Internship Programme is a paid six-month programme
that offers Nigerian youth the perfect opportunity to re-invent themselves and
“GREENSTART” their careers.
Obi Ibekwe also said, “For our Nigerian youth, YOE is your
one-stop shop for exploring pathways to the career of your dream.”
Since its launch in October 2021, EnterpriseNGR has grown
its member base with top organizations in the FPS sector including Aluko &
Oyebode, Chapel Hill Denham, Coronation Merchant Bank Ltd., FBNQuest Ltd., FMDQ
Group, NGX Group, Tengen Family Office, PWC Nigeria, Templars, Central
Securities Clearing System Plc (CSCS), Access Bank Plc., DLM Capital Ltd.,
Investment One Financial Services Ltd., Custodian Investment Plc., and
Tangerine General Insurance Limited.
It has also garnered international attention as an FPS
advocacy group in Nigeria and is currently recognized as an observer with the
World Alliance of International Financial Centers (WAIFC).
