Youth Work and Market Trends: Opportunities for Growth
Join CorpsAfrica Alumni from across the continent for the 3rd CorpsAfrica Alumni Virtual Summit, a five-day experience focused on career development, entrepreneurship, and the future of youth leadership in Africa.
Designed to support Alumni beyond their service, the Summit will offer practical skills, professional insights, and opportunities to connect with fellow Alumni and experts across a range of fields.
Throughout the week, participants can explore two dedicated tracks:
- Entrepreneurship & Venture Scaling: Explore business development, financial management, seed funding, investor pitching, and strategies for growing a venture.
- Employment & Professional Development: Build skills in resume and CV writing, interview preparation, LinkedIn and personal branding, scholarships and fellowships, and career advancement.
- The program will also feature plenary sessions, panel discussions, and opportunities to learn from Alumni experiences and exchange ideas about the future of the CorpsAfrica Alumni Network. Dedicated French-language masterclasses will offer additional opportunities for Francophone Alumni.
