Ghana’s first content creator academy - The African Digital Creator Academy (ADCA)

Jambo Spaces, the leading creator incubator and hub in Ghana, is launching the

African Digital Creator Academy (ADCA) to empower African youth with the skills

and tools needed to become earning content creators.

Starting from Ghana, it’s the first content creator academy in the country and it promises to enable Africa to contribute to the fast growing global content creator economy which is valued at $950 billion. Although African youth spend hours online, the continent still

contributes less than 2% to this global creator economy.

According to Bernard Kafui Sokpe, Co-Founder of Jambo Spaces, “ADCA is more than

an academy. It's a game-changing movement aimed at changing the narrative in

Africa by putting money in the pockets of the youth. It has a curriculum tailored to

the unique needs of African creators. Whether you’re an aspiring influencer, a

storyteller ready to captivate audiences, or a future brand-builder, ADCA is the

solution.”

Here are the five transformational courses ADCA will be teaching:

● Creative Storytelling and Pitching: Master the art of captivating audiences

with compelling narratives.

● Brand Building Basics : Craft a unique and standout digital identity.

● Photography & Videography for Creators: Hands-on training to create

high-quality, shareable content.

● Content Monetization: Discover how to turn your content into income with

sponsorships, ads, e-commerce, and more.

● Copyright & Intellectual Property Law : Protect your work and navigate

collaborations like a pro.

The first cohort kicks off with just 25 exclusive slots at the vibrant Jambo Spaces

facility, where participants will learn directly from Africa’s top influencers and

industry leaders.

These mentors bring real-world experience and practical insights to

prepare participants for success. Apply now, or gift a slot to someone deserving at

www.ADCAEDU.com.

This initiative is sponsored by the French Embassy as part of the Creation Afrique Ghana fund beneficiaries.
