The FAST Programme
Family Homes Funds Limited & AfDB Partnership for Artisan Skills Training
Our Mission
Nigerian youth need accessible, accredited training in construction trades, while developers struggle to find verified, skilled labor. Information regarding training programs, accreditation levels, and location-specific success rates is often scattered.
The FAST Programme is designed to bridge this gap by providing high-quality, free vocational training leading to National Skills Qualification Framework (NSQF) certification.
- Nationally recognized NSQF Certification
- Direct pipeline to employment with top developers
- Focus on female inclusion in construction (40% target)
- Practical, on-site learning environment

The NSQF Framework
The National Skills Qualification Framework is a standardized system for classifying and recognizing skills in Nigeria. It ensures that FAST graduates meet specific, measurable industry standards.
