ALX Africa Graduates Over 2,800 Learners Across Africa

ALX, Africa’s leading tech career accelerator, has graduated over 2,800 learners across Africa. The countries include Ghana, South Africa, Rwanda, Ethiopia, Kenya, Morocco, and Egypt, with over eight hundred of them from Nigeria as part of its first cohort of the Data Science program.

The programme, which started with a two-month ALX Foundations module, focused on essential communication, leadership, and career-building skills, providing learners with the soft skills needed to succeed in the digital workforce. Afterwards, learners specialised in Data Science, covering topics like spreadsheets, statistics, data modelling, SQL, Power BI, Python, and cloud computing.

The new graduates will serve as a reference point and motivation to other community members while they await the next phase of their career path in the job space.

This milestone reflects ALX Nigeria’s commitment to advancing tech learning across the continent and empowering the next generation of African tech leaders.

At the graduation ceremony in Lagos, ALX Nigeria country general manager, Ruby Igwe, expressed her enthusiasm, stating, “The success of our first Data Science cohort is an affirmation of the potential within our youthful population. This set of graduates has shown extraordinary commitment and has developed the skills needed to lead in the tech industry. We cannot wait to see the impact they will make in Africa and the world at large.”
