Have you seized your spot in the future of digital healthcare in Africa?

This is an opportunity you don’t want to miss.

We have got the table set just for you. It’s up to you to make the necessary move and position yourself for the future.

All you have to do is take the bold step.

I must let you know that it’s not going to be easy. This is not a two-day webinar. It’s work. You are going to be doing a lot of work.

It will last for 90 days.

And we believe that after 90 days you would have received adequate training on your area of interest that will make it possible for you to keep building.

This is what makes this bootcamp unique.

You will become part of our community after the training. And our mentors and facilitators will be available to guide you.

Now, that’s rare, you don’t get to see stuff like this for the amount we are asking you to commit.

If we were to charge you for the value that we are giving to you, I doubt if up to 80% or more will be able to pay for it.

So, we decided to peg a one-time fee of Five Thousand Naira for students and Ten Thousand Naira for those who are working.

You see, that’s fair enough. And as a startup, we are not even going to make any profit from all of it. Yeah, that’s bad business, if you think about it. But to us, it’s not just about business. It’s an adventure. We are desperate and we have committed ourselves. We want to see healthcare professionals in Africa lead the future…

That’s our dream. And you, are right here with us and together we will make that dream a reality.

Go ahead, send us a mail here: carecode@carecityonline.com. Tell us who you are and why you want to jump into the world of tech.

Once we get your mail, we will guide you on what to do next.

And hey, before I let you go, share this opportunity with colleagues you care about.

You never can tell, you might be inspiring the next Elon Musk.

By month’s end, we will close applications.

If you have any concerns or suggestions, just reply to this mail and we will be here to respond.

Do have a wonderful day ahead.
