<p data-beyondwords-marker="23c8bc99-087d-4e48-9542-5866254be186">After facing initial challenges with email-based verification in the Three Million Technical Talent (<a href="https://nitda.gov.ng/3mtt/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">3MTT</a>) program by the Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy, applicants can now opt for SMS OTP verification, addressing the delays in the registration process.</p>
<p data-beyondwords-marker="ee2e00e3-8199-458c-800a-f5430b444bec">The Ministry’s decision to implement SMS OTP verification comes in response to concerns raised by applicants on the Minister of Information and Digital Economy’s official X page. This update allows intending participants in the digital skills training programme to complete their registration and account confirmation through an SMS message, providing a more efficient alternative to email verification.</p>
