3MTT has partnered with AltMall and AltBank to offer a convenient device financing program exclusively for their fellows. This means they can now purchase laptops from AltMall and pay monthly instalments.

The absence of a laptop has been a significant barrier to the progress and success of most fellows. This initiative would greatly remediate that obstacle.

Here’s how to get it

The fellows are to visit AltMall’s online platform and choose from a wide selection of laptops tailored to meet their needs. 

AltBank will provide financing options, allowing them to pay for their chosen device with affordable monthly instalments.

Once approved, Rayda, an esteemed asset management company, will deliver their selected device directly to them.

“We understand that access to reliable devices is crucial for your success, and this partnership aims to remove any financial barriers.

We look forward to seeing this partnership’s incredible impact on your learning journey.” 3MTT concluded.

3MTT designed a survey with rewards 

In another update, 3MTT has designed a survey to help them improve their program.  A statement released on its platforms says, “Dear Cohort 1 Fellows! 

Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve the 3MTT programme, and we want to hear from you! We have designed a survey that will help us enhance the program for future fellows. Your responses will remain confidential and be used solely to improve the 3MTT Programme.”

As a token of appreciation for their time and effort, the first 2,000 respondents to the survey will be eligible to claim a ₦50,000 LinkedIn Premium Scholarship, good for six months of membership, as this will boost their career journey after the programme, help them apply for jobs, and further their professional growth. 

“Remember, graduating from 3MTT means you remain a vital part of our vibrant community. You will have ongoing access to our job board, Telegram community, valuable resources, and more. ”
