Program Pathways
Discover the tech track that's right for you. Our specialized programs are designed to build skills for the careers of tomorrow.

Web Development

Web Development is the gateway to creating interactive and impactful websites. At Tech-rise Foundation, we teach youth how to code, design, and deploy websites using modern tools like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and more. From personal portfolios to community-driven platforms, our programs help young learners become digital creators.

AI & Machine Learning

Dive into the world of AI and Machine Learning, where technology mimics human intelligence. Our workshops introduce teens to core concepts like neural networks, data modeling, and real-world AI applications. Youth learn how to build smart systems that power everything from voice assistants to recommendation engines.

Cybersecurity

With growing digital threats, cybersecurity skills are more important than ever. We empower teens to understand online safety, ethical hacking, and defensive programming. Through hands-on labs and guided mentorship, students learn to protect systems and data, becoming tomorrow’s cyber guardians.

Mobile App Development

Explore the exciting world of mobile app development. Teens learn to design, build, and launch mobile applications on iOS and Android platforms. Whether it’s solving real-world problems or creating fun, interactive tools, our students build the skills to put technology into action—anytime, anywhere.

Game Development

Turn passion for gaming into a career path through our game development programs. From 2D game design to immersive 3D environments, youth explore programming, storytelling, and user interaction. It’s a fun and engaging way to develop coding skills while unleashing creativity.

Data Science

Data is the new gold. At Tech-rise, young learners get introduced to data science fundamentals—like data analysis, visualization, and interpretation. Using real-world datasets and Python-based tools, they uncover insights and trends, turning numbers into stories that drive innovation.

Before Tech-rise, I never thought I could actually build my own game. Now I’ve developed a playable prototype, and I’m even interning with a game studio. This program changed how I see my future—I'm going to be a developer!
Jamal A. Game Dev Student
Tech-rise gave me the tools to build a website for my mom’s catering business. It felt amazing to help my family and learn something I thought was too hard for me. I feel confident in tech now!
Sophia E. Web Dev Student
Mentoring at Tech-rise has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. These kids are sharp, curious, and full of potential. I’m proud to be part of a movement shaping the future of tech in Nigeria.
