The details that matter

Before you apply.

When do applications open, and when do they close?

All four programmes open at 12:00 a.m. West Africa Time (UTC+1) on 15 November 2026. TechOver applications close at the end of 29 November 2026, WAT. O-Level, PGDE and Tertiary Tutorials have ongoing registration with no announced closing date.

Are these programmes completely free?

Tuition is free. TechOver has a one-time ₦5,000 application fee and an optional ₦10,000 course-end assessment, project and digital certification fee. Sponsored waivers may cover these costs where funding is available. You provide your own device and internet access. Any future optional costs for another programme will be explained before you commit.

Do I have to register to participate?

Yes. Registration helps us understand your learning needs, organise programme access and share the right updates. Watching public YouTube lessons does not register you for a structured programme.

Does registration mean classes start immediately?

No. TechOver classes are scheduled for 1 December 2026. Structured academic classes and PGDE sessions will begin on dates announced later, when teaching arrangements and resources are ready. Registering interest does not guarantee that every requested subject or course will be offered.

How will the application buttons work?

Before the opening date, clicking a button shows the launch notice. From launch, a connected form opens directly. If a form is still being prepared, the button explains that status and offers a way to contact the team. Please do not submit personal information or payment through unofficial links.

Can I learn using my phone?

You can watch lessons on a suitable phone or computer. TechOver practical work needs regular access to a laptop or desktop. A shared computer or a reliable cybercafé arrangement is acceptable. Plan for your own data and internet access.

What does PGDE mean on this page?

Here, PGDE identifies the proposed teaching-methods and practice learning pathway for practising and aspiring teachers. An accredited Postgraduate Diploma in Education, recognised qualification or professional teacher registration is not being promised by this page. Any formal qualification arrangements must be separately confirmed.

Can I ask for a subject or course that is not listed?

Yes. The planned academic application forms will let learners select subjects and suggest additional courses or topics. Requests will help us assess demand and tutor needs before adding classes.

How can I sponsor a learner or partner with Emostel Academy?

We welcome voluntary donations, recurring sponsorship, equipment, expertise and partnerships. Support helps fund tutors, reliable power, internet, learning resources and sponsored access. Visit the support page or speak with our team. Donating is separate from applying and does not replace registration.
