DDM News

(DDM) – The management of DDM Academy has announced that its Cohort 5 trainees will present their final projects on Wednesday, August 13, 2025, at the academy’s headquarters in Awka, Anambra State.
DDM correspondent gathered that the highly anticipated event will begin at 10:00 a.m. and will bring together trainees, instructors, industry experts, and guests to witness the culmination of weeks of learning and innovation.
According to the organisers, the presentation marks the official conclusion of an intensive training programme in which participants have acquired hands-on skills across multiple disciplines, including frontend development, UI/UX design, digital marketing, video editing, and the use of modern office suites.
The Cohort 5 programme has been characterised by a blend of classroom instruction, practical assignments, collaborative projects, and peer-to-peer learning.
Participants have spent weeks developing projects that not only test their individual abilities but also demonstrate their capacity to work as part of a team.
In preparation for the final presentations, the trainees engaged in real-world simulations designed to replicate professional work environments.
This, according to the academy, ensures that the graduates are not only technically skilled but also industry-ready.
The management of DDM Academy explained that the final presentation is more than a graduation exercise.
It is also a launchpad for participants to transition from learners to practitioners in the fast-growing Nigerian digital economy.
Guests will have the opportunity to see innovative solutions to real-life challenges, as well as creative designs, marketing strategies, and video content produced during the training period.
For the developers, the projects range from responsive websites and mobile-friendly applications to interactive user experiences tailored for Nigerian businesses.
UI/UX designers have crafted user-centered digital solutions, while digital marketers have prepared campaigns aimed at brand visibility and customer engagement.
Video editors will showcase compelling content suitable for both social media and broadcast platforms.
The final projects will be assessed not only on creativity and technical execution but also on the presenters’ ability to communicate their work confidently.
This, the academy believes, is crucial for building professionals who can pitch their ideas to clients, employers, or investors.
Organisers say the event reflects DDM Academy’s mission to equip Nigerian youths with relevant digital skills that open doors to global opportunities.
Members of the public and well-wishers who cannot attend in person are encouraged to watch the event live on the DDM YouTube channel.
