The Teach For Nigeria Fellowship program is a 2 year full-time paid commitment that is designed to build a movement of leaders who will work towards eliminating educational inequity in Nigeria.
As a Fellow, you will set targets and work towards ambitious goals
that will put your students on a different life path. The experience
will not only develop your leadership skills but also give you
first-hand exposure to the educational crisis in our country. It will
help you develop an awareness of the wider issues relating to
educational inequity – and deepen your understanding of their potential
solutions.
Through the two years Fellows receive ongoing support
through a combination of in-person training sessions, leadership forums,
as well as online training courses and resources. Additionally, we will
build partnerships with key public and private sector entities in order
to develop pathways to accelerate alumni leadership in critical areas.
