In February 2024, I received a scholarship from The Nwa-Amaka Achebe Trust for a product management course. This opportunity provided me with practical skills that have significantly shaped my career. The insights I gained through the course directly contributed to me securing my current role as a Product manager at Basik technologies.

I am incredibly grateful to the foundation for this support, as it has empowered me to advance in my professional journey with confidence and expertise.

Firstly, I would like to thank The Nwa-Amaka Achebe Trust for offering me a scholarship in API product management. The knowledge acquired has been instrumental in not just improving my API knowledge, but made me an API subject matter expert in Product design during the development of our HRTech product, VolutHR as well as revamp of other products.

I am eternally grateful for the opportunity and I hope to pass on the knowledge and impact others in the near future.
