Graduates are expected to access remote roles at OnPoint Virtual Assistants with an earning potential of $500 to $6,000+ monthly, aligning with Ghana\u2019s digital jobs agenda.<\/p>\n<p>Coogler-Hudson emphasizes the long-term national impact: \u201cThis is not just training, it is economic transformation. We are opening doors to global opportunities that can uplift entire families and communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With plans to scale to over 200 trainees, the program positions Ghana as a future hub for AI-enabled work in West Africa.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <div class=\"booster-block booster-reactions-block\">\n            <div class=\"twp-reactions-icons\">\n                \n                <div
