Engr. Samuel A. Ibitoye Spent Nineteen Years On Nigerian Sites Before He Ever Taught A Class. He Watched Talented Hands Turned Away From Work For One Reason: No Certificate, No Proof.

So He Loaded A Van With Tools And Started Teaching In Church Halls, Estates And Site Cabins. That Van Became Supportive Associate International Training School, And Mobile Delivery Is Still Our Signature.

What Graduates Say About Us

Adaeze Okonkwo, Class of 2024
"I came in able to hold a trowel and left able to price a job. Six weeks of block laying, then the safety module, and I was on a Lekki site before the certificate even printed. The instructors correct you on the wall, not on paper."
