The academy stated that the new cohort is designed to equip participants with in-demand digital competencies that align with current global workforce needs and the rapidly evolving tech economy.
According to the organisers, Cohort 7 is targeted at youths, professionals, graduates, and career changers who are eager to transition into technology-driven careers or expand their existing skill sets.
DDM Academy explained that the programme focuses on hands-on, project-based learning, ensuring that participants gain real-world experience rather than just theoretical knowledge.
Courses available under the new cohort include Frontend, Backend, and Full-Stack Web Development, which are aimed at preparing students for software engineering roles in both local and international markets.
Other training options include UI/UX Design and Graphics Design, skills that have become increasingly valuable as businesses compete for digital visibility and user engagement.
The academy also offers Digital Marketing and Project Management courses, reflecting the growing demand for professionals who can manage digital campaigns, coordinate teams, and deliver projects efficiently.
Data Analytics is another key component of the programme, with organisers noting that data-driven decision-making has become central to business growth across industries.
In addition, Cohort 7 will feature training in Crypto and Forex Trading, as well as Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, areas that continue to generate debate due to their high earning potential and associated risks.
Microsoft Office Suites training is also included, aimed at beginners and professionals seeking to strengthen foundational workplace productivity skills.
DDM Academy disclosed that the training will be delivered through both onsite and online learning options, allowing participants to choose a format that best suits their location and schedule.
Limited accommodation will be available for onsite learners, although additional fees will apply, a factor that has already generated discussions among prospective participants.
The academy described the programme as a response to rising unemployment and underemployment, particularly among young Nigerians, emphasizing the need for practical skills that translate directly into income opportunities.
Organisers stressed that the goal of Cohort 7 is not only to train students but also to prepare them to build portfolios, work on real projects, and position themselves competitively in the job market.
Registration for the programme is currently open, with interested applicants encouraged to secure their slots early due to limited capacity.
Industry observers note that tech academies like DDM Academy are playing an increasingly influential role in bridging the skills gap left by traditional education systems.
However, critics argue that the growing number of private tech training programmes raises questions about quality control, affordability, and long-term outcomes for graduates.
Despite these concerns, DDM Academy maintains that its structured curriculum, practical focus, and flexible learning options make Cohort 7 a viable pathway for individuals seeking sustainable careers in technology.
The academy concluded that participants who fully commit to the programme stand a strong chance of transforming their skills into viable income streams in Nigeria’s competitive digital economy.
