One Continent. Ten Million Opportunities.
A continent-wide initiative for the whole of Africa
Project 10 Million is ITSKILLS4AFRICA's continent-wide initiative to equip Africans with the AI, technology, business and digital-economy capabilities required to learn, work, build businesses and compete globally.
Online participation will be open across Africa. We are building partnerships with governments, universities, schools, employers, telecommunications companies, technology providers, development organisations and community networks throughout the continent.
Countries will become local delivery locations as suitable partnerships and implementation capacity are established.
The MVP proposition
A verified pathway from enrolment to opportunity
From enrolment to capability, from capability to evidence, and from evidence to opportunity or business transformation. We prioritise outcomes over catalogue size.
Learn
Mobile-first, low-bandwidth pathways in AI foundations, AI for business and advanced AI building — designed for how Africa actually connects.
Prove
Every structured learner leaves with verified evidence: an assessment result, portfolio artefact, deployable project, business plan or credential.
Progress
Evidence opens the next door — mentorship, further training, work, freelance, founding a business or an enterprise use case in production.
