HYT Consulting has completed the third edition of its Employability Bootcamp, training over 130 graduates, National Youths Service Corps (NYSC) members and early-career professionals in practical sales, workplace readiness and employability skills.
The five-day bootcamp, which held from June 22 to 26 2026, focused on Financial Services and FMCG sales, was designed to address a persistent gap in Nigeria’s labour market: young people are leaving school with qualifications, but many still require practical exposure, and workplace skills to compete for available jobs. Through the Sales Cohort, HYT Consulting focused on one of the most accessible entry points into employment, equipping participants with the professional skills employers need across high-demand sectors.
This year’s cohort marked a significant expansion of the programme, with both physical and virtual participation options created to accommodate young Nigerians in Lagos and across other parts of the country. Most importantly, it reinforced the growing relevance of the HYT Employability Bootcamp as a practical human capital development platform, connecting young Nigerians to sector-relevant training, workplace readiness and job placement opportunities.
