The free training, organised in partnership with Investonaire Academy, was announced in a statement on Wednesday by the ministry’s Director of Information and Public Relations, Omolara Esan.
According to the statement, the initiative reflects the ministry’s commitment to equipping young people with practical financial knowledge and skills to thrive in today’s economic environment. It aims to boost employability, foster entrepreneurship, and drive sustainable wealth creation across the country.
Participants will receive training on global asset classes such as commodities, gold, equities, and foreign exchange, as well as modules on risk management, portfolio development, and wealth-building strategies.

The programme will be delivered through a dynamic Learning Management System (LMS) featuring gamified learning, simulations, quizzes, and real-world trading scenarios. Physical sessions will begin in Abuja before expanding to other states.
The initiative is open to Nigerian youths, including students, NYSC members, entrepreneurs, job seekers, and young professionals across the 36 states and the FCT.
