As part of the Google Developers Launchpad kick-off early in the week, Google announced a partnership with Andela & Udacity to provide 15,000 ‘single-course’ scholarships and 500 nanodegree scholarships to aspiring developers in Nigeria, Kenya, and South Africa!
This is an encouraging sign that Google is committed to the development of talent across Africa.
Benefits
- Learn valuable skills to launch or advance your career as a mobile or web developer
- Master world-class curriculum developed with experts from Google and Udacity
- Join a rapidly growing community of mobile and web developers
To apply for this scholarship, you need to be at least 18 years old and live in a country in Africa. When applying, you will choose between learning web development or Android development. From there, once you’re accepted, you will be placed in one of two tracks (beginner or intermediate), depending on your existing skills and experience. After that, the learning begins!
Some scholarship recipients may be able to participate in an Andela Learning Community with Andela. Finally, top students from each track will earn full scholarships to one of our Android or Web Development Nanodegree programs.
How to Apply
The application is straightforward and should take 10-15 minutes. There is a single application for all, whether you’re interested in Mobile or Web, and whether you’re a beginner or already have experience.
Answer what you can, to the best of your ability, and they’ll do the rest!
Deadline: 24th April 2018
