Description

Skillspoint is a transformative learning initiative by INX Digitals, created to make high-demand technical skills accessible to everyone—especially underserved, unreached, urban, and rural communities. The program exists to break the barriers that limit young people from reaching their potential. We recognize that the gap between a young person thriving and one slipping into crime, drugs, or hopelessness is often simply a lack of opportunity. Skillspoint is built to close that gap by offering future-proof, industry-relevant skills that empower individuals and uplift entire communities. To ensure inclusivity, the program will provide scholarship opportunities, enabling participants from diverse backgrounds to pay very little while gaining valuable digital competencies. Our goal for the first year is ambitious: to train 5,000 learners across multiple communities and set them on a path toward meaningful careers and improved livelihoods.
