GetBundi Onboards TechSis 2026 Cohort as Training Commences
GetBundi has officially onboarded the 2026 cohort of TechSis, its flagship digital skills program designed to equip African women with in-demand skills for the digital economy.
The virtual onboarding ceremony, held on Saturday, August 1, 2026, marked the commencement of four months of intensive online training in Content Creation, Digital Marketing, Data Analytics, and Video Editing.
Speaking at the ceremony, the keynote speaker, Ms. Petronella Chizera, CEO of Asher Zebulun, challenged participants to look beyond securing jobs and use their newly acquired skills to create opportunities and solve problems within their communities.
āYour digital skills become truly valuable when they solve real problems in your community,ā she said.
Guest speaker Dr. Ijeoma Emeagi, Director of Career Development Services at the Federal Polytechnic, Nekede, encouraged participants to embrace continuous learning and intentionally build their professional identities.
āNever stop learning. The end of training is the beginning of your professional journey. Build a digital footprint youāre proud of because your reputation starts long before the interview,ā she said.
TechSis 2026 provides beneficiaries with free training, while certification is optional at a fee of US$10 for participants who successfully complete the program and wish to receive a certificate.
GetBundi launched TechSis in 2023 as part of its commitment to reducing Africaās digital gender gap and expanding women's participation in the digital economy.
The program has grown steadily since inception. Its first cohort trained 500 women in Coding in 2023, followed by 1,500 women in Web Development and Data Analytics in 2024 and 1,500 women in Data Analytics and Cybersecurity in 2025. In 2026, the program targeted 3,000 African women, bringing the cumulative number of women targeted through TechSis to 6,000.
Speaking at the launch of TechSis in 2023, GetBundi Founder Osita Oparaugo said the initiative aims to create sustainable economic opportunities for African women.
āOur mission is to equip African women with the digital skills they need to drive innovation, secure meaningful employment, and achieve economic independence. We are creating pathways for African women to enter and lead in the digital economy,ā Oparaugo said.
Beyond training, GetBundi is also working to connect skilled graduates to employment opportunities. Through its partnership with Doballi, a Dubai-based remote talent recruitment platform, some TechSis graduates have already secured opportunities with international companies.
GetBundi is an African education technology platform that delivers STEM education and digital skills training, designed to prepare African learners for the future of work.
