The Nigerian Export Academy (NEXA) is an initiative of the Nigerian Export-Import Bank (NEXIM). As an export credit agency, NEXIM has, over the years, concentrated its efforts on the development and expansion of the Non-Oil sectors of the Nigerian economy by empowering exporters with the funding, consultancy, and resources to diversify the economy away from over-reliance on oil export.

To spread its impact across Africa and give more exporters the opportunity to benefit from the growing Non-Oil Export Industry, NEXIM has partnered with Sapphital Learning Ltd and other Subject Matter Experts, Digital Companies, Funding Partners, Export Regulatory Authorities to provide access to knowledge, skills and comprehensive courses to help learners across Africa who are interested in starting an export business or expanding current export operations.

A Place for Subject Matter Experts to Teach

"Knowledge is Power" and "Knowledge is never too much". That is so true for the Non-Oil Export Sector in Nigeria and Africa where there are so many areas, so many commodities, so many processes and so much to lose when you lack the basic and technical knowledge. That is why we are inviting Subject Matter Experts across the value chain to come on board and let's build NEXA together.
