Life after tertiary education is not a bed of roses. With rising unemployment and a harsh labour market, many graduates find themselves unprepared. DIUSCADI was born in 2020 to change that narrative — through practical training, mentorship, and real-world career connections.
To bridge the gap between academia and professionalism — equipping students with practical skills, mentorship, and employment opportunities for life after school.
To empower the next generation of leaders, innovators, and entrepreneurs — preparing young Nigerians not just for jobs, but for leadership and nation-building.

"We are not just preparing young people for jobs — we are preparing them for leadership, innovation, and nation-building."
— Prof. Ikechukwu I. Umeh, Founder
"Before attending LASCADSS, I had no direction. The mentorship I received at DIUSCADI gave me the confidence to start my own tech business."

Samuel Okafor — LASCADSS 5.0 Beneficiary
Being part of DIUSCADI was an amazing opportunity. The Finalist Launchpad Workshop gave me insight into what life after school really looks like. For the first time, someone actually educated me on how to prepare my CV and get ready for interviews.

DIUSCADI taught me that one needs little to no capital to start — for example, in digital marketing. The seasoned speakers shared life stories that were incredibly inspiring. Their resilience is truly worth emulating.
