Naija Tailors Empowerment Initiative (NTEI) is a Nigerian NGO based in Abuja, founded in 2025. Our mission is to empower Nigerian youths, tailors, and fashion entrepreneurs through tailoring skill acquisition, business promotion, technology integration, community development, seminars, advocacy, and awareness.
What is the NTEI Youth Training Program?
The NTEI Youth Training Program is a tailoring skill acquisition initiative designed for Nigerian youths aged 16–30. Applications are now officially open for the 2026 cohort, inviting driven young Nigerians across all 36 states who want to learn tailoring skills to apply.
Selected participants will receive a free 12-month comprehensive training in sewing techniques, pattern drafting, and business management through our certified training partners. Participants will also gain access to NTEI resources and a growing network of entrepreneurs.
Applications for the 2026 NTEI Youth Training Program are open from April 1, 2026, to December 1, 2026.
