Asseco Nigeria, Asseco Data Systems to Empower Software Developers 

Within the frame of its partnership agreement with Asseco Data Systems (ADS) signed in January 2022 for the provision of IT services to the Asseco Group, Asseco Software Nigeria (ASN) will be receiving some advanced software development and technology implementation trainings from ADS over the course of 2024.

The partnership between ASN and ADS aims at providing qualified Nigerian software developers to join ADS’ software development projects. For the purpose of hiring, training and retaining such skilled professionals, the companies have designed jointly a specific and customized training program.

The program is open to Nigerian IT undergraduates at the end of their studies, as well as Asseco Nigeria’s junior technical staff, who will be trained on software development lifecycle, the C4 software architectural model, business & system analysis. CEO of Asseco Nigeria, – Simon Melchior  said, “ADS is a global leader in Trust Services, CERTUM, SimplySign and Signer are recognized brands and for us to join in the development lifecycle of these products is a great learning opportunity. I am sure that through this program, our trainees will learn global best practices in terms of software development and become even more valuable stakeholders in our national and regional digital journey.”

On his part, Director Trust Services R&D Department at Asseco Data Systems, Marcin Szulga said, “for us, what is interesting is to have qualified non-Polish software developers to join our development teams so that our products are designed from the beginning for the global market, so that our dev teams speak English among themselves and thing big, think outside of their box, from the onset.”
