The National Information Technology Development Agency NITDA has strengthened its push to modernize Nigeria's education sector by equipping teachers with critical digital skills under its flagship initiative, Digital Literacy for All DL4ALL. As part of this effort, the Agency has launched a two-day physical training programme in Abuja for teachers selected from all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory FCT.
The training, which commenced on September 18, 2025, follows more than two weeks of virtual sessions that reached 3,600 teachers nationwide. These online sessions introduced participants to foundational digital concepts and set the stage for more practical, hands-on learning during the physical training phase.
NITDA is implementing the DL4ALL programme in partnership with the Universal Basic Education Commission UBEC and the National Senior Secondary Education Commission NSSEC, demonstrating a coordinated national effort to upgrade teaching standards across basic and secondary schools. The objective is to ensure that educators possess the competencies required to deliver learning that meets the demands of the digital era.
