The Nestlé Technical Training Program in Agbara, Nigeria, is part of Nestlé’s global Needs YOUth initiative and a collaboration with the Swiss State Secretariat of Migration (SEM). Since its inception in 2011, the program has received an overwhelming response, with an average of 10,000 applications annually. Each year, up to 20 apprentices are selected through a rigorous assessment process to ensure quality training and personalized attention. The program includes 18 months of intensive theoretical and practical training at a dedicated learning centre in Nestlé’s Agbara factory. The program not only enhances the technical skills of talented young Nigerians but also fosters cultural understanding and knowledge sharing between Switzerland and Nigeria. |
