Turn Your Skills into Wealth for Life-After School

What to expect at #LASCDSS5

Life after tertiary education is definitely not a bed of roses. With the continuous rise in the rate of unemployment, and competitive and harsh labour market, many graduates find themselves unprepared for the transition into the realities of the universal workforce.

My name is Dr. Ikechukwu Umeh, founder DIUSCADI, and the convener of Life After School Career Development Seminar Series (LASCADSS).

DIUSCADI’s mission is to bridge the gap in transition from academia to professionalism seamlessly via our Life After School Career Development Seminar series organized for fresh graduates and undergraduate students.

DIUSCADI’s vision is to achieve a situation where finalists students of the Nigerian tertiary institutions and fresh graduates discover their talents in hard and soft skills early enough to become entrepreneurs, employers, employable, and successfully fit into the Nigerian labour market. LASCADSS workshops empower young graduates to transform their academic skills into entrepreneurial ventures and meaningful careers.

Trusted Community. True Connections.

    Being part of the organization team for DIUSCADI 2.0 was not just an interesting experience but an amazing opportunity to work alongside people with diverse perspectives yet building meaningful contributions. The Finalist Launchpad Workshop gave me an insight of what life after school looks like. It was indeed a great initiative to actually educate students who are about to graduate on what to expect after graduation and how to go about it. For the first time, I actually had someone educate me on how to prepare my Curriculum Vitae and get prepared for interviews. This program positively impacted a lot in my life and I can’t wait to attend the next one.

It was an event that taught me the essential skills needed for the contemporary world, and the best part was realizing that one needs little to no capital to start – for example, in digital marketing. The event provided a great networking opportunity, as I met many vibrant youths who are ready to change the world – people of like minds. It was not just about the skills; the seasoned speakers shared life stories that were incredibly inspiring. Their resilience during the early stages of their lives is truly worth emulating. It reinforced my belief that with hard work
