About IEDF College
The Informal Economy Development Forum (IEDF) is proud to announce the launch of its revolutionary Digital College, a groundbreaking initiative aimed at addressing the pressing issue of high unemployment rates resulting from a lack of education. The forum recognizes that a significant portion of the population faces barriers to formal education, leading to limited job opportunities and perpetuating the cycle of poverty.
With the global unemployment rate reaching unprecedented levels, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, IEDF’s Digital College aims to bridge the education gap and empower individuals with the skills and knowledge required to enter the job market successfully. By offering accessible and flexible online courses, the college targets those who have been undeserved by traditional educational institutions.
Through strategic partnerships with educators, industry experts, and technology providers, the Digital College will offer a diverse range of courses catering to the needs of different learners. The curriculum will cover various fields, including vocational training, entrepreneurship, digital skills, financial literacy, and more, enabling students to acquire relevant competencies aligned with current job market demands.
The Digital College’s online platform will leverage cutting-edge technology to deliver engaging, interactive, and user-friendly learning experiences. Students can access the courses anytime, anywhere, providing flexibility to balance their studies with work or personal commitments.
The launch of the Digital College marks a significant milestone in IEDF’s ongoing commitment to promoting sustainable economic development through education. By empowering individuals with valuable skills and knowledge, the forum aims to equip them with the tools necessary to thrive in the job market and uplift their communities.
