Program Overview
The Schoolville Engineering Skills Program (ESP) is a hands-on, industry-focused training initiative created to equip students, graduates, and aspiring innovators with practical engineering and technology skills aligned with Africa’s growing demand for manufacturing, infrastructure, and product development.
ESP bridges the gap between classroom theory and real-world engineering practice by emphasizing design, prototyping, testing, and deployment across multiple engineering disciplines. The program prepares learners to contribute meaningfully to industrial growth, innovation hubs, startups, and technical teams.

Program Description
ESP is a project-based engineering pathway that transforms learners into skilled, job-ready engineers and technologists.
Participants learn by doing, working in labs, workshops, and design studios under the guidance of experienced engineers and instructors. Each course emphasizes applied problem-solving, systems thinking, and innovation, enabling learners to design and build functional engineering systems.
By the end of the program, participants will have developed working prototypes and engineering projects suitable for demonstrations, commercialization, internships, employment, or startup incubation.
