First publicly owned Energy Academy targeted at shoring up manpower in Nigeria?s post-power privatisation era has been unveiled in Lagos.
Nigeria is said to be in acute shortage of qualified manpower to drive the expected expansion in the power sector which was privatised by the Federal Government in November 2013 leading to the emergence of Generation Companies (GENCOs) and Distribution Companies (GENCOs) from the defunct Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN).
The academy sited at the Lagos State Electricity Board (LSEB) within the Government Reserved Area (GRA), Ikeja, will offer courses that will see graduands becoming electrical engineers with globally recognised certificates. The first batch of students were inducted on Tuesday, signalling the full take of the academy.
