About Us
The Online Efiko is a micro-learning platform which provides interactive
eLearning courses across several important areas: leadership and management;
communication skills; personal effectiveness and productivity; customer
service; strategy and innovation; entrepreneurial development and management;
business acumen and financial literacy, digital skills amongst others.
Most of the courses are designed, developed, and
taught by Learning Impact’s Founder, Omagbitse Barrow (The Efiko) as he
transfers his extensive experience as a scholar, corporate educator,
entrepreneur, and strategy consultant to learners through eLearning.
The Online Efiko is growing to become the largest
indigenous eLearning platform for professionals in Nigeria and Africa, offering
the flexibility, convenience, local context and content and an affordable
alternative to the typical online courses from outside the country.
The name “Efiko” is inspired by the Nigerian slang
that means a nerd, bookworm, or a geek. It is therefore a community of
professionals and organizational leaders who are excited about learning and
applying practical skills to improving their lives, work, and organizations.
At the Online Efiko, our focus is to ensure that our
learners get a “sabificate” and not just a certificate. There are too many
people with certificates who are unable to apply what they have learned to the
real world, and this skills gap is hurting our society and our country
severely. Our vision is that through the Online Efiko, more individuals will be
equipped with the skills they need to do their jobs properly (“sabi”) and that
their vocations, careers, and organizations will flourish. We will build a more
innovative, prosperous, and successful society, country and continent together.
For individuals and organizations, the Online Efiko is
an affordable solution that offers afro-centric content and context that is
relatable and will support learning transfer. The Online Efiko can also be
customized to meet the specific learning needs of your organization, so please
contact us to take advantage of our corporate e-learning solutions.
