This transformative initiative is dedicated to empowering young girls by equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and support they need to thrive in their personal and professional lives.

What is the Program About?
The GCA LEARNER’S PROGRAM is dedicated to empowering young girls by providing them with the knowledge, skills, and support needed for them to thrive. Through a variety of projects, we focus on fostering gender equality, building confidence, promoting personal development, and enhancing leadership abilities. We also emphasize financial literacy, digital skills, and advocacy for social change, equipping girls to make informed decisions, engage in their communities, and lead with confidence in both their personal and professional lives.
Mode of Training
We will enroll 20 Learners for every physical Training in each area and over 500 Girls for the online program in Schools. The program focuses on 12 key topics attributed to personal and social wellness or interactions and provides a supportive environment and practical learning resources like the GCA Learner’s Handbook & the GCA Learner’s Access Card,
We aim to help these young women make informed decisions, engage in their communities, and lead with confidence. And at the end of the program each learner will be tasked to mentor other 2 girls from their community.
GCA Learner’s Handbook & the GCA Learner’s Access Card
The GCA Learner’s Handbook is in hard copy and the same content is available online on our learning management system. Only Individuals, schools and women groups with access to computers will be enrolled for the online classes where learner’s will be provided with the GCA Learner’s Access Card to be able to access these courses at their time of convenience within the 30 days of the course. After attending to all assignments, learners will be graduated from the Program and certified. In partnership with Local internet Café, we are confident that girls in the local community will have an opportunity to also be enrolled for the Online Course in some areas.
