Ndjuluwa97 Academy provides Self-Development training to its learners.
The Self-Development programme includes educational visits, career advice and social events.
For example, the Eros Airport Educational Visit and the visit to the Civil Engineering Department at the Namibian University of Science and Technology (NAST), plus other outings.
Self-Development training was a new development in early 2023. The feedback from learners was excellent and the Academy has evaluated the impact of the training on learners. As a result, the Academy now offers further levels of Self-Development training, which will include subjects as below.

“Emma said that she enjoyed the self-development program and she learned a lot. She has more self-confidence now although it is not 100%. She can also control her temper better than before. I hope that next month she will improve more. Thanks very much Ms Helvi for helping our girl!”
– Mrs Emma Nikanor
“Monica has improved in public speaking. She’s no more a shy child or has that fear to approach strangers. She has gained self-confidence and there’s a change in her learning”.
