The School Transforming How Nigerians — and Africans — Learn Public Speaking

The School Transforming How Nigerians — and Africans — Learn Public Speaking

In a country of over 200 million people, where the voices of youth and professionals alike often go unheard or untrained, one institution is quietly — and powerfully — changing the landscape of communication education.

That school is Fordax Public Speaking School — and if you haven’t heard of it yet, you soon will.

Founded with a vision to raise a new generation of confident, articulate, and credible communicators, Fordax is now widely regarded as Nigeria’s leading public speaking school — and a rising African powerhouse in communication training. 

While global programs like Toastmasters and Dale Carnegie have long dominated the space, Fordax has taken things several steps further — by localizing content, prioritizing practicality, and institutionalizing public speaking education from the classroom to the boardroom.

Not Just a Training, But a School — With Structure, Standards, and Scale

Unlike one-off workshops or casual clubs, Fordax is a full-fledged school: government-approved, ISO-certified, and UK-accredited. It offers globally recognized certificates, practical curricula, and monthly programs that run year-round — from January to December.

“We wanted to create something that was more than a class,” says one of the school’s senior facilitators. “We built an ecosystem where people could grow from shy to bold — from curious to confident — through real training, real coaching, and real-world practice.”

The numbers tell the story: over 10,000 students trained, presence in major cities like Abuja, Lagos, and Uyo, and an expanding footprint in the United Kingdom. More recently, Fordax launched an ambitious franchise model, bringing its acclaimed programs to primary and secondary schools, universities, and corporate hubs across Africa and beyond.

The First of Its Kind — And Proudly Nigerian

Fordax isn’t just the first of its kind in Nigeria — it may be the only public speaking school in Africa with the level of regulatory approval, international recognition, and institutional presence it now holds. Its students can list the school on LinkedIn as an official institution attended — a detail that places Fordax in the same conversation as traditional academic institutions.

But it’s not the certifications alone that make Fordax special. It’s the impact.

In a society where speaking skills are too often underdeveloped or overlooked, Fordax has helped children find their voice, professionals secure promotions, and entrepreneurs pitch their businesses with confidence.

What’s Next for Fordax?

With its Public Speaking Club for Kids gaining popularity in schools, and with professionals enrolling in its monthly masterclasses and executive communication tracks, Fordax is not slowing down.

Its next goal? To become the leading public speaking school in Africa, and one of the most respected communication training institutions in the world.

If the last few years are any indication, they are well on their way.

• The leading public speaking school in Nigeria
• A trusted speech and presentation school in Abuja or Lagos
