Asset-Backed Financing for Your Career

Structured loans for training and housing, designed to remove financial barriers. Low interest, deferred repayment, and part-time work integration so you can focus on building your career.

Loan Products

Three financing options.

Choose the product that matches your needs, or combine them for a complete financing solution.

Tuition Loan

Covers full or partial training costs across any BlackForce programme. Structured repayment begins after employment or at a defined grace period. Interest rates are kept low to prioritise learner success over profit extraction.

Accommodation Loan

Housing financing tied to BlackForce-owned or partner properties. Learners who relocate for in-person training receive accommodation support with costs integrated into their financing package. The asset-backed nature of the property provides security for the loan.

Eligibility

Who can apply.

Geographic Focus

Initial focus on learners from West Africa (Nigeria, Ghana, and expanding), with UK-based learners also eligible. The programme is designed to expand internationally as the financing infrastructure matures.

Age & Programme

Available to learners aged 18 and above enrolled in or accepted to a BlackForce career programme (COHORT, Adults CPD, or Special Programs). UPA learners (13-18) are not eligible for direct financing.

Assessment Required

All applicants undergo an initial assessment including motivation interview, basic aptitude evaluation, and financial circumstances review. The goal is to ensure the financing structure is appropriate and sustainable for each learner.

Commitment Required

Learners must commit to full programme participation, maintain attendance standards, and engage with the career placement process. Financing is contingent on active engagement and progress towards certification and employment.

Asset-Backed Model

Why asset-backed financing is different.

Traditional student loans are unsecured debt. BlackForce accommodation loans are tied to real property assets, either BlackForce-owned or partner properties. This asset backing provides security for the loan, reduces risk for all parties, and enables lower interest rates for learners.

For learners, this means guaranteed quality housing during training, no need to navigate unfamiliar rental markets, and the confidence that their accommodation is managed and maintained as part of their learning experience. The part-time work integration further offsets costs, making the overall package more sustainable.

FAQ

Questions about tuition loans.

The Tuition Loan is a more traditional, structured financing product with defined repayment terms. Skill Capitalization is an equity-like investment model where you share future earnings with investors. Both are available and serve different learner needs. Some learners may use a combination of both.
Interest rates are kept deliberately low and competitive. Exact rates depend on the financing package, programme duration, and individual circumstances. BlackForce prioritises learner success over profit extraction from interest.
Repayment terms include a grace period after programme completion. If you are actively engaging with the BlackForce careers pipeline (internships, work experience, employer marketplace), additional support and extensions may be available. The goal is your employment, not your default.
Yes. The initial focus is on West Africa (Nigeria, Ghana) and the UK, but the programme is designed to expand. International learners relocating for in-person training are ideal candidates for the Combined Package (tuition + accommodation).
Yes. Accommodation loans are tied to BlackForce-owned or partner properties. This asset-backed structure provides security for the loan and ensures quality, managed housing for learners during their training period.
Absolutely. The loan products exist for learners who need financing support. If you prefer to pay upfront or in instalments without a formal loan, that option is always available.
