Admission and Selection Process
The 4-Step Admission & Selection Process - Detailed Overview
At RITA Africa, we are committed to helping aspiring tech professionals access high-quality training without tuition barriers. Our admissions process is designed to be simple, transparent, and supportive. Here’s an outline of the admission process:
Step 1: Choose Your Program
Explore our tech programs and select the one that aligns with your career goals—whether in Data, Software Development, Cloud Computing, or Cybersecurity. If you’re unsure, our Admissions Team can guide you to the best fit for your interests and long-term plans.
Step 2: Apply Online
Click Apply Now and complete the online application form. Select your program preference and enrollment option so we can review your profile and prepare your onboarding details. After submission, our team will review your application and contact you with next steps.
Step 3: One-Time Application Fee: $19
To finalize your admission processing and secure your place in the intake, you will pay a one-time $19 application fee.
What this application fee supports:
It supports admission-related operational costs such as:
- Application review and processing
- Enrollment coordination and onboarding support
- Student verification and admissions administration
- Setup of learner access to core systems and learning resources
Important clarity about this fee:
- This fee is not tuition.
- This fee is not a certification fee.
- Paying this fee does not mean you are paying for the program itself. It is strictly a one-time application fee that supports admission processing and onboarding operations.
After payment, you will receive:
- Your official admission confirmation, and
- Access details for your onboarding session.
Step 4: Begin Your Training Journey
Once enrolled, you will receive access to your training schedule, live classes, program resources, and the RITA Africa community. Your training journey runs approximately 18–24 months and is designed to build real, job-ready skills.
What You’ll Gain in the Program
Participants in the main program benefit from:
- Hands-on learning through real-world projects.
- Mentorship and guidance from experienced instructors.
- Career support and employability preparation.
- The opportunity to earn up to five industry-recognized certifications and a professional diploma (based on your track and performance)
Sponsorship Commitment (Tuition & Certifications)
RITA Africa’s 18–24-month training program (valued at approximately $4,000 USD) is fully sponsored after enrollment. This means:
- No tuition fees.
- No certification fees.
Monthly Maintenance Fee: $10 per month
After admission, students pay a $10 monthly maintenance fee throughout the training period.
What this monthly fee supports (non-tuition items):
- Learning platform operations and maintenance (e.g., LMS access, tools, updates)
- Technical support for students during training
- Continuous maintenance of learning resources and mentorship materials
- Program operations that keep delivery stable and consistent (communications, resource hosting, and structured support systems)
Important clarity about this monthly fee:
- This fee is not tuition.
- This fee is not a certification fee.
- It does not replace sponsorship.
- Tuition and certifications remain fully sponsored; the monthly fee only supports ongoing operational delivery.
- The monthly maintenance fee begins at the end of your first month in the main program, once your official admission and onboarding are completed.
NOTE: There are no additional mandatory or hidden fees beyond the one-time application fee and the monthly maintenance fee stated above.
Commitment & Transparency
These contributions help ensure learners remain supported throughout the program while keeping tuition and certifications fully sponsored. Participation reflects a shared commitment to learning, consistency, and successful program completion.
