Emmanuel Nwaja

Data Analytics and Digital Marketing

During my time with UAI, I’ve worked with three diverse companies, contributing digital marketing and data analytical skills. I’ve assisted with content writing, social media management, and virtual assistance. I’ve analyzed competitive landscapes and developed data-driven content and social media strategies that influenced company decisions. This included writing marketing copy, managing social media accounts, analyzing KPIs, and preparing reports. My insights have been leveraged for podcasts, blogs, and newsletters. I joined UAI as a student from Federal University of Technology, Owerri (under Youthup Global), eager to address businesses’ digital marketing and data analytical challenges.

Human Resources Management

The UAI apprenticeship program in Human Resources Management (class of 2022, when UAI was still under Youthup Global) provided a strong foundation for my career. Through hands-on experience, I assisted businesses in optimizing their HR functions, from recruitment and onboarding to performance management and policy development. These experiences ignited my passion for talent development and revealed the crucial role HR plays in empowering individuals and driving organizational success. Building on this, I’ve founded my own talent support group, dedicated to helping young people discover their strengths, choose the right career paths, and unlock their full potential. I’m committed to leveraging my HR expertise to guide the next generation towards fulfilling and impactful careers.

Christabel Chiamaka Livinus

Copywriting, Social Media and Brand Strategy

Before UAI, I was an undergraduate student with passion but no clear direction. The UAI Apprenticeship program provided the skills and experience I needed to succeed. I honed my branding, content writing, and social media management abilities through internships with real companies. UAI didn’t just teach me skills; it opened doors. I was recommended for a remote job with a US partner brand and continue to thrive there even after graduating. I highly recommend UAI to any student looking to gain practical skills and jumpstart their career!”



Johnson Babatunde

Project Management

As a recent graduate and UAI apprentice in 2024, I’ve been supporting entrepreneurs with project management, virtual assistance, and administrative support. I’ve assisted in organizing and tracking project timelines, managing communication and correspondence, and providing essential administrative support to ensure smooth operations. My contributions have helped entrepreneurs stay organized, meet deadlines, and focus on their core business activities.

Uchechi Nwagwu

Branding and Content Marketing

I joined UAI from Federal University of Technology, Owerri, in 2020, and during my time there, I’ve had the opportunity to work with three diverse companies, contributing my branding, content writing, and social media management skills. I focused on developing comprehensive branding strategies and creating engaging content for various platforms. This included crafting compelling marketing copy, managing social media accounts, and analyzing key performance indicators (KPIs) to refine strategies. My work aimed to enhance brand awareness, drive audience engagement, and ultimately contribute to client success. The insights I gathered were leveraged to inform content calendars, marketing campaigns, and overall brand messaging. I was eager to help businesses strengthen their brand presence and online communication.
