One of Africa’s leading financial
institutions, Access Bank Plc. recently partnered with the Lagos
State Government in the pilot phase of its Ready.Set.Work initiative
to train 500 undergraduates from 3 tertiary institutions in Lagos. The
internship programme is aimed at adequately equipping the students with the
required skill-set to excel in the corporate and entrepreneurial world.
Since the programme
commenced on June 21st, 2016, Access Bank has trained 21 students
from Lagos State College of Health, Lagos State Polytechnic and Lagos State
University. The inaugural set of students completed their 6-month
internship program on May 19th, 2017.
According to the
Youth Segment Manager of the bank, Ms. Edinyanga Enang, “Access Bank is happy
to receive these trained graduates particularly because the Ready.Set.Work programme
ties into our commitment to youth development, which informed the decision to
partner with Lagos State on this project.”
