Less onboarding time
Office tools, email, shared documents: acquired before arrival, not during.
Hire graduates who are ready for the job.
You spend weeks training a new graduate on what university does not teach. DANGBE does it beforehand, on the skills you name yourself. Start with five minutes of survey.
Why hire a DANGBE graduate
What changes with a candidate who followed the program, from day one to the first quarter.
Verified skills, not declared ones
Every completed course is proven, every skill is assessed by a volunteer. The certificate says what was seen.
A local talent pool, to international standards
Togolese graduates trained on what businesses and NGOs with international standards look for, here, without expatriation.
What we verify
The certificate does not rest on a declaration. Here is what the team looks at for every participant.
- Completed courses, with a proof (certificate or screenshot) validated by a volunteer
- Regularity: a participant inactive for two weeks is contacted
- One assessment per skill, scored by a volunteer, with comments
- The ability to give and take feedback, observed during the follow-up
« When graduates enter the workforce with stronger critical thinking, digital fluency, and collaborative skills, companies benefit through reduced onboarding time, higher productivity, and a more globally-competitive local talent pool. »
The survey: five minutes that set the program.
About a dozen questions. Which skills you value in a young graduate, in what order, and what you actually observe in your new hires. Your answers decide the choice of courses, their weight and their order.
- Anonymous if you wish
- Results shared with respondents
- Priority access to certified graduates

Employers’ questions
01How much does hiring a DANGBE graduate cost?
Nothing. DANGBE is not an agency and takes no commission. We introduce, you hire as you see fit.
02Can I see the certified profiles?
Yes, with the participants’ consent. Employers who answered the survey are notified first at the end of each cohort.
03Who guarantees the quality of the certificate?
Nobody but us, and we say so. Its value comes from the method: validated proofs, assessments per skill, regular follow-up. You can check it by meeting a graduate.
04Can my company fund DANGBE?
Not for now. The project runs without funding to stay independent. What we need is your answers to the survey and your time.
Five minutes to say what you look for.
The program is built on your answers.
