SQA Marshal Software Testing Scholarship Program for Graduates and Undergraduates
About the Scholarship Program
SQA Marshal Limited is organizing a 4-week scholarship program for graduates and undergraduates to upskill in quality assurance and software testing.
This program offers hands-on practical training designed to prepare participants for internship opportunities within the tech industry.
There are numerous benefits and opportunities available in this field, but only for those with the right skills. Unfortunately, only a few are truly qualified.
Gaining the skills needed for job readiness often requires a significant financial investment, one that many cannot afford.
That’s why SQA Marshal Limited has introduced this scholarship opportunity, aimed at equipping young Nigerians with the essential skills to begin a career in software testing after school.
