HYT Consulting, a leading human capital development firm operating across Nigeria and Ghana, has announced the launch of the second edition of its flagship Employability Bootcamp, scheduled to take place from 3 to 7 November 2025 in Lagos.
The five-day intensive training seeks to bridge the long-standing divide between academic qualifications and workplace readiness among Nigerian graduates. This year’s edition will focus on equipping participants with technical and soft skills relevant to the financial services and software-as-a-service (SaaS) sectors—two of the fastest-growing industries in Nigeria’s economy.
According to HYT Consulting, over 300 recent graduates are expected to participate in the bootcamp, which builds on the success of the inaugural edition held in July. Designed as a complete career development cycle, the programme incorporates pre-training screening, classroom learning, mock interviews, competency assessments, and post-training deployment to partner organisations. Participants will also benefit from ongoing mentorship and performance tracking to ensure sustainable employability outcomes.
Speaking about the initiative, HYT Consulting’s Chief Executive Officer, Folusho Odegbaike, said the bootcamp represents the company’s commitment to developing a competitive and future-ready workforce.
“At HYT Consulting, we recognise that talent is the new currency of competitiveness,” Odegbaike said. “Our Employability Bootcamp was conceived as a bridge between potential and opportunity, transforming graduates into assets employers can immediately trust and deploy.”
The 2025 edition is supported by Private Networks Nigeria Limited (PNN), a pan-African technology services organisation with a track record spanning over three decades across communications, power infrastructure, and renewable energy. Through its Business Incubation and SaaS divisions, PNN has continued to invest in programmes that strengthen Africa’s human capital base, reflecting the growing importance of private-sector partnerships in shaping employability outcomes.
Odegbaike noted that the measurable impact of the bootcamp’s first edition has reinforced HYT’s belief in practical, results-driven interventions. “From our first cohort, 52 per cent of participants secured employment within two months, while 17 per cent were serving in the NYSC programme. These results reaffirm that structured employability training can deliver measurable transformation when backed by committed partners and data-driven design,” he said.
Since its establishment, HYT Consulting has built a reputation for advancing human capital development and workforce transformation across sectors. Its initiatives aim to close Nigeria’s growing skills gap by providing job seekers with the tools, knowledge, and mindset required to thrive in today’s rapidly evolving workplace.
Through its Employability Bootcamp, the firm continues to position itself as a key player in shaping Nigeria’s human resource landscape, promoting inclusion, and empowering young professionals to compete on both local and global stages.
