After you apply
What verification involves
Nothing happens behind a curtain. Every application moves through the same three stages, in the same order.
We review
A reviewer checks your details and work against a published rubric.
We verify
Skills assessment, a communication interview and reference checks.
You get matched
Verified profiles are shown to employers briefing relevant roles.
Who hires from the pool
Companies that want the screening already done
Employers come to NPDA for verified African marketers: assessed skills, a live brief marked against a public rubric, a communication interview and reference checks. Shortlists arrive pre-filtered, and employers pay for that access so the pool stays free to you.
Build the evidence while you wait
The free courses stay free, permanently. Pass an assessed brief and you are queued for the verified talent pool automatically.
