It is a fantastic program for those who want to start or accelerate their software engineering careers. The offer specializations in Product Design, Frontend development,(React with Node.js) backend development(C# and asp.net core) and Devops(AWS,Docker,Linux, Containers, CI/CD etc).

I personally know some of alumni who works at commercial banks, United Nations, fintechs and the Central bank of Nigeria.

It is a highly recommeded program and those guys do Deferred Payment(Payment after you get a job)

I think their website is www.thebulb.africa

Don’t fall for this. 6 months training after which you’d be required to pay back 2m naira for when you start working.

The laptop you’d be provided with will be returned also.

Just company swags, basic training and vibes

All the necessary information about the financial aid/payment plan is on the website FAQ page.

I have enrolled in the Fellowship program and it is legit.

The program clearly states its payment plan. You either pay upfront, or you enroll through their financial aid/career bond option.

After your 4 or 6 months of training (depending on your course), you will be offered an internship opportunity or given a job. From there, you have a 2 - 3 year plan to pay back your career bond. See the website for more information on the payment plan - https://fellowship.thebulb.africa/courses

The laptop is given to all Fellows for the duration of their training which they may either buy-back after the training or return it.
