With the crypto space rapidly growing—fueled by innovations like Bitcoin ETFs, stablecoins for cross-border payments, and emerging Layer-2 networks like Arbitrum and Base—the programme prepares participants for high-demand roles in Web3, including product management, NFT strategy, blockchain development, and DeFi analytics.
Feedback from the participants has been overwhelmingly positive.
Fejiro also revealed plans to award 100 full scholarships for the AltSchool Diploma, helping more young Nigerians gain tech skills that are increasingly vital in today's global job market.
