Admissions, plainly answered.

What is the NBTE VEI accreditation?

+

Vocational Enterprise Institution status under Nigeria's National Board for Technical Education allows us to issue National Vocational Certificates (NVC) that employers and government agencies recognise nationwide.

02

How long does a programme take?

Electrical and Plumbing run 12 weeks (360 hours). HVAC / AC runs 14 weeks (420 hours) because of the additional gas-handling certification.

03

How much of the training is hands-on?

80% practical, 20% digital theory. Every trainee works on individual mock walls, plumbing rigs and live HVAC training units with real materials — not simulators alone.

No trade experience is required. Admission is by aptitude test covering basic mathematics and English, plus a short interview on commitment and safety attitude.

Tuition is subsidised at ₦50,000 payable in installments, and needs-based trainee stipends are available through our ITF and government partnership channels.

Are tools and PPE provided?

Yes. Every trainee is issued PPE on day one and works with professional-grade trade tools throughout the programme, including multimeters, pipe wrenches and gauge manifolds.

07

What happens after graduation?

Graduates complete a two-week supervised internship on live job tickets, then get onboarded to our partner dispatch platform as certified pro partners. Our target placement rate is 90%.

A central workshop hub in Lagos, with satellite hubs in Abuja and Port Harcourt. Each site runs three-phase power with solar backup, borehole water and full fume extraction.
