The Université Numérique Cheikh Hamidou Kane (Un-CHK), in partnership with Force-N Sénégal and the Mastercard Foundation, organized a Hard Skills Bootcamp on Digital Entrepreneurship at the Espace Numérique Ouvert (ENO) in Guédiawaye. The event formed part of the Digital Entrepreneurship Certificate program and brought together more than 200 participants for a full day of training, collaboration, and exchange.
The bootcamp aimed to strengthen the technical skills of learners while creating an interactive platform for exchange between program managers, mentors, and participants. It provided hands-on sessions and discussions centered on the practical deliverables of the course, enabling participants to enhance their digital competencies and entrepreneurial mindset.
The initiative is part of Force-N Sénégal’s ongoing efforts to equip young people with the digital and entrepreneurial skills needed to succeed in the modern economy. Through capacity-building activities like this bootcamp, the program seeks to bridge the gap between education and employment, preparing participants to contribute effectively to Senegal’s growing digital ecosystem.
The organizers expressed appreciation to the teaching teams, mentors, and participants for their commitment, collaboration, and enthusiasm throughout the day.
