Talent Is Everywhere.
Opportunity Is Not.
Our Story
Founded in 2019 in Lagos, Nigeria, Tech Skill Lab Africa began with a simple belief: that talent is distributed equally across the continent, but opportunity is not.
What started as a small coding workshop with 15 students has grown into a continent-spanning movement, training thousands of young Africans in world-class technology skills.
Today, we operate in 34 cities, with a 78% job placement rate and over $3.2M in graduate salaries generated.
