What Skills do you Need to Thrive in Today’s Global Digital Economy?

We are now the closest we have ever been to the futuristic dystopian future you often see in Hollywood with flying cars and technology so advanced it can almost predict the future. The rapid digitalization of our world, greatly accelerated by COVID has birthed new opportunities for the digital savvy to create new sources of livelihood and wealth.

What Skills do you Need to Thrive in Today’s Global Digital Economy?

Social media in particular has seen the meteoric rise of a new generation of digital earners– influencers, content creators, marketers, community managers, writers, graphic designers, communications specialists and others– making millions of naira shaping perceptions and driving sales for personal and commercial entities.

Young Nigerians today can boast of earning their first million much easier than any other generation before them thanks to concepts previously alien and would have been considered outrightly absurd and impossible– like remote work and freelancing– servicing clients whose countries they will probably never set foot.

So what skills do you need to thrive in today’s global digital economy and where can you learn them? The African University of Cyberpreneurship (UOC) answers that question.

It is the first and only platform designed to raise a new generation of highly skilled digital entrepreneurs, “Cyberpreneurs”, capable of earning from a global market right from their homes across the continent.

The University boasts knowledge-packed modules taught by some of the world’s most successful cyberpreneurs, led by founder, Andrew Brown, who is one of the world's top 3 NFT artists with a net worth of over £200m.

The African University of Cyberpreneurship aims to catapult a new generation of young Africans to the forefront of global innovation and development- leading the charge to uplift their families, communities, countries and ultimately, the African continent forward.

Modules for the University programs are set to commence on the 25th of October and early bird sign-up on the website is encouraged which comes at a discount.
