African Schools Enhancement Training (ASET) Project
Which School Can Benefit?
The project is for schools in Africa desiring global competitiveness. It’s an Accelerator training programme that benefits all the school’s stakeholders including school leaders, teachers, parents, and students. Each benefitting school will receive performance enhancement training services worth $100,000 for free. Thirty (30) schools in Africa will benefit from the programme. Nigerian Teachers Community which has a membership of more than one million teachers from over 100 countries is coordinating the efforts of NGOs and individual philanthropists to make this contribution to Africa's education. The selection process is competitive. Apply only if you meet the conditions prescribed below.

Venue:
All the training sessions will be held in your school hall. This is to ensure that all your staff, parents and students benefitting from the training are able to access the venue of the training with ease. To be selected, your school must have a conducive hall for all the presentations. The trainers will use projectors and flip chart boards to make their presentations. Apply only if you have those presentation aids and generator that backs up your public electricity supply so the training can run without hitches. The ideal hall will be airconditioned but apply if you believe that your hall is adequately ventilated without air conditioner. We may inspect your presentation hall before approving your application.

All the school’s stakeholders will acquire the knowledge and skills they need to play their roles creditably. The students at the benefitting schools will learn how to earn scholarships and navigate into globally competitive universities at costs their parents can afford.
