Aya, an online platform that connects the best African talent with organisations all over the world, has joined forces with Coinbase Giving, a charitable program to create Aya’s Web3 Fellowship.
According to Aya, interested applicants can register to participate in the program by filling out their details in the attached form. Successful applicants will undergo a rigorous vetting process as they aim to work with top early-stage African talent who are passionate. The program is set to begin at the end of September, 2022.
The fellowship lasts for a 9-month period, with 6 months being for practical training in your chosen track and 3 months for job placement/internships (for the top performers) in order to equip you with solid professional experience. With the support of Coinbase Giving, the fellowship is completely free.
The initial first few weeks would focus on foundational concepts. In the weeks following that, you will begin your learning of core concepts which you will practice through individual projects. In the final weeks of the fellowship, you will collaborate with other participants to work on interesting web3 projects.
Geeky Nigeria reports that the top 50 candidates selected to join the first cohort of the Aya Web3 Fellowship will get the skills they need to become an industry-leading web3 professional.
Note that Aya’s fellowship is 100% virtual for a duration of 6 months. The tuition costs for this cohort has fully been covered by Coinbase Giving, so you don’t need to pay any fee.
