Youth of Enterprise (YOE) Internship Programme is one of EnterpriseNGR’s immediate developmental initiatives that aims to address the national youth unemployment and under-employment trends as well as build capacity in the private sector.
The youth of enterprise internship program is a paid six-month program that offers Nigerian youth the perfect opportunity to re-invent themselves and “greenstart” their careers.
The National Population Commission places Nigeria’s population at about 220 million with 50% of the population comprising youth. Unfortunately, over 42% of Nigerian youth remain unemployed and a larger percentage are underemployed (Source: Nigerian Bureau of Statistics).
With the YOE Internship Program, we seek to improve the employability of Nigerian youth and position them for success in the workplace.
Through the Youth of Enterprise (YOE) Internship Program, EnterpriseNGR is playing a vital role in facilitating capacity building in the private sector and contributing to resolving the problem of unemployment in Nigeria.
