The Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency of Nigeria (SMEDAN) in collaboration with the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) is set to begin the second phase of its National Industrial Skills Development Programme (NISDP).
The scheme is under SMEDAN’s National Enterprises Development Programme ( NEDEP) training in 18 states.
A statement by the SMEDAN’s Corporate Affairs Unit said the flag off ceremony would be performed by the agency’s Director-General/Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Dr. Dikko Umaru Radda.
The NIDSP programme is under a tripartite arrangement among ITF, SMEDAN and the Bank of Industry (BOI).
The training is designed to cover 10, 000 participants, who will be trained in 54 centres across the 18 states.
Earlier this year, SMEDAN trained over 10, 000 graduates of ITF vocational skills training on entrepreneurship and business development under the NIDSP programme.
