Millennium Fellowship Project: Inter-School Skill Training and Enlightenment (ISSTE)
The project is called ISSTE, Interschool Skill Training and Enlightenment. The main purpose of this project is to help those in secondary schools acquire digital or technical skills, and also teach them how to earn from these skills online. In addition, students are taught self-branding, how to pitch for jobs online, and create a personal brand. Parents or guardians are involved to balance academics and skill acquisition, and the fees earned by students are used to support some academic needs, ensuring responsible spending and maintaining morality during skill acquisition and learning.
The project (ISSTE) is focused on training senior secondary school students on how they can leverage digital skills in financing their education. I was able to launch my project ISSTE during the Millennium Fellowship and collected contacts of several students to continue the program even after the Fellowship.
