The Nigerian Jubilee Fellows Programme (NJFP) 2.0, a federal government initiative funded by the European Union and implemented in partnership with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), is now open for host organizations to participate in its second phase. The programme connects qualified young Nigerians with private and public sector institutions to enhance employability and strengthen workplace capacity.
According to the NJFP management, interested organizations can sign up through the official portal at www.njfp.ng. The team explained, “To sign up as a host organization, visit the NJFP portal and click on Apply as a host organization. Next, enter your organization details, CAC number, tax identification number, business address, and contact information. Ensure these match your official company records. Inaccurate information can delay approval.”
Applicants are advised to confirm their office location accurately during registration. “Turn on your device’s GPS to confirm your exact current location. You will need to allow location access in your browser. Once your device’s GPS matches the address provided, congratulations, your application is complete,” the team said.
After submission, applications are reviewed by the NJFP team. Approved organizations gain access to a personalized host dashboard, where they can “add departments, approach for car person details, and manage all fellowship activities in one convenient place.”
The matching and selection stage uses an artificial intelligence system that recommends qualified fellows based on each organization’s needs, discipline, skills, gender, or location. Organizations can review candidate profiles, invite them for interviews, and send offer letters through their dashboards.
Once fellows accept offers and resume duties, hosts are expected to validate start dates to activate placements. Through the platform, they can track attendance, monitor performance, and submit monthly feedback. The grievance redress mechanism is also available for quick and transparent issue resolution, ensuring seamless fellowship operations and improved institutional productivity.
