Transforming local entrepreneurs into globally successful exporters through innovative, practical training.
Microvarsity, Africa’s first export-focused vocational education platform, is proud to announce its official launch. Dedicated to equipping entrepreneurs with the skills and resources they need to scale their businesses globally, Microvarsity is committed to bridging the knowledge gap in high-impact sectors like food and agriculture.
With over 40% of Africa’s population engaged in agriculture and related industries, the potential for global trade remains largely untapped. Microvarsity aims to address this challenge by offering a comprehensive suite of export training programs, mentorship opportunities, and community-driven resources.
“Africa’s entrepreneurs have the talent and ambition to compete on the global stage, but they often lack the practical tools to succeed,” said founder, Olatunde Wealth]. “Microvarsity’s mission is to empower these individuals with actionable knowledge and support, enabling them to unlock Africa’s $250 billion export potential.”
Key Features of Microvarsity Include:
- Cohort-Based and Self-Paced Courses: Covering export documentation, logistics, compliance, financing, and more.
- AI-Driven Learning: Personalized pathways tailored to learners’ needs, with mobile-friendly and offline accessibility.
- Mentorship and Networking: Access to industry experts and a supportive community of peers.
- Certifications and Partnerships: Programs developed and certified with trade bodies and institutions to ensure credibility.
Since its inception, Microvarsity has engaged with over 2,000 learners through its pilot programs and built a robust online community of 9,000 export-focused entrepreneurs.
Impact and Growth
Microvarsity aims to train over 100,000 entrepreneurs across Africa within the next three years, driving economic growth and fostering sustainable business practices. The platform is actively seeking more partnerships and funding to expand its reach and enhance its offerings.
