Federal Government/NCC Free Laptop Programme Details

The future of the digital economy that we are building, will be sustained by the young innovators that we empower today.

In line with that, I recognise the important role that initiatives like Industrial Training programmes play in shaping the competence of young Nigerians and providing practical experience in the application of their knowledge.

We have seen a number of promising and innovative technical projects built during the Industrial Training programme that align with our objectives to grow our digital economy.

This is why we are launching the Young Innovative Builders (YIB) programme https://yib.fmcide.gov.ng, for tertiary students to apply for a chance to win a laptop or tablet as they further develop their innovations.
