About LAskill

It started with 12 skills in 12 days.

LAskill began in 2020 as a WhatsApp class for people who had lost their income. Today it is a training center and five more departments, built on one idea: digital skills should be within reach of everyone.

Our story

In 2020 the world stopped. The lockdown kept all of us at home, and I watched many people around me lose their income with no clear way forward. Some of my friends reached out. They needed a way to survive.

I felt the best help I could give was to teach. So I ran a 12 day online training on WhatsApp, and I taught 12 digital skills in 12 days.

Somewhere in those 12 days I saw something that changed my plans. People were hungry to learn digital skills. That hunger is why LAskill exists.

2020

The lockdown class

People were stranded at home with no income. A few friends reached out, and Charles ran a 12 day training on WhatsApp: 12 digital skills in 12 days. It was called Learn a Skill with Charles.

2021

A training center at home

The brand became Learn a Skill Training Center. Classes started from Charles's own house.

Then

New location

As more people joined, the classes moved into a different location to make room for them.

Today

A headquarters and six departments

LAskill now runs from a headquarters in Uyo, with six departments working together.

The name says it all

Learn a skillbecomesLAskill

LAskill is short for Learn a Skill. It is still the plan: help people learn one useful skill, then build on it.
