Deloitte Africa and Amazon Web Services (AWS) have committed to equipping one million Africans with cloud computing and essential tech skills by 2030

Deloitte Africa and AWS launched a Digital Skills Program focused on building cloud computing and AI capabilities for young people across Africa. While the initiative spans the continent, pilot phases in South Africa, Nigeria, and Kenya have already trained over 1,400 youth.

By combining AWS’s world class cloud platform and technical training with Deloitte’s focus on employability skills and mentorship, the program is developing a strong pipeline of future ready talent and expanding access to opportunities in the digital economy.

Through this collaboration, participants gain both technical certifications and critical professional skills, equipping them to successfully transition into tech enabled careers and contribute meaningfully to Africa’s growing digital economy.
