Tunde & Labo Ebidero Foundation Training Institute offers a comprehensive training program designed to equip young Africans with essential skills for success. Our curriculum integrates Soft Skills, Hard Skills, and Operational Skills, ensuring our students are prepared to thrive in any professional or entrepreneurial environment.

Soft Skills ۩

We focus on developing well-rounded individuals by teaching key personal and professional skills, including leadership, emotional intelligence, communication, and understanding the concept of values. These soft skills are foundational for success in the workplace and society, fostering growth in areas like self-awareness, teamwork, and ethical decision-making. Students learn to understand their purpose, manage emotions, and communicate effectively, making them adaptable leaders.

Hard Skills ۩

Our technical skills training covers practical, hands-on vocations, such as welding, fashion design, cabinet making, and monogramming (digitizing, machine operation, and maintenance). We also offer training in advanced machinery operations like laser, plasma, and router machine operations, including CAD training. These courses are structured to ensure students gain the necessary expertise in their chosen trade or technical field, making them competitive in the job market.

Operational Skills ۩

To build a complete professional, we focus on key operational skills that empower students to succeed in business and organizational settings. These include courses in entrepreneurship, problem-solving, creativity, resourcefulness, and time management. Students also learn practical skills like financial management, marketing, negotiation, costing, and client relationship management. This robust skill set allows students to excel as business owners or in managerial positions, fostering innovation and strategic thinking.

By combining Soft Skills, Hard Skills, and Operational Skills, our programs ensure that every student receives a holistic education that empowers them to pursue their career goals, whether in technical professions, entrepreneurship, or leadership roles.
