Maximum Career Success  International (MCSI) a Lagos based career and human development Company, has targeted to train and to financially empower 4,000 job seekers and small business owners this year.

Speaking while unveiling the company’s training programme for the year, President/CEO, MCSI, Dr. Chika Ezeh, said they hope to achieve the target through free seminars and workshops on skills that today’s work requires.

“We target to train at least three thousand people (unemployed, early retirees, mid career changers) and one thousand small businesses this year to become employable or to start their own business,” she affirmed.

She disclosed that in addition to tailor made books to assist people   in discovering their talent potentials and how to use them profitably, the company has designed courses and seminars aimed at providing individuals with the experience and credentials needed to make them more competitive in the job market and more successful to run their own business.

According to her, the company is on the path to make visible impact both in the public service and the private sector by influencing performance.

“It is expected that many civil servants and private sector employees would have realised that they are in the wrong places and would have discovered where they should rightly be and what they should be doing. This is expected to motivate them to make career shifts. By so doing, they will create vacancies for the right people in those fields and happily move to create employment or fill gaps elsewhere. The Nigerian Federal government policy to downsize the civil service will no longer be viewed with distaste but will be embraced by many civil servants who may opt on their own to go for more fitting and creative self or private employment,” she said.
