The scholarship is open to Nigerian citizens, and there is no specified application deadline. Interested and qualified individuals can apply through the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) website. Successful applicants will receive a Coursera license through their provided email in the form of a joining link. They will then be able to join the program and enrol in a course by clicking on that link.
