Tritek Academy: Our 2025 Milestones & the Road Ahead for 2026
From Dr. Adeshola
Dear Tritek Family,
As we close out the year, I am reminded of an old African proverb: “When the rhythm of the drum changes, the dancers must also change their steps.”
This year, our rhythm changed many times. We grew, we adapted, we stumbled, we rose again, and through it all, your commitment kept this community moving forward.
Today, I want to speak plainly and transparently about the feedback we’ve received, the challenges we’ve encountered, and the bold new initiatives we are launching in 2026.
What We Learned This Year
We received extensive feedback from you, our students, across multiple training sessions, and I want to acknowledge the themes openly.
Strengths we are proud of
- Strong trainer knowledge and passion
- Engaging delivery and relatable examples
- Supportive community and teamwork
Areas that need to be better
- Training sessions were often too fast-paced
- Four-hour sessions were overwhelming
- Some sessions felt rushed or too intense
- Candidates wanted more hands-on practice and a clearer structure
- Feedback mechanisms were not consistent
- Internal communication delays caused confusion
- Some roles lacked clarity and accountability
This feedback was honest, direct, and necessary, and I am deeply grateful for it. Growth requires truth. We have listened.
What We Are Changing – 2026 Initiatives
2026 will be a transformational year for Tritek. We are restructuring the entire learning, support, and experience journey for every student.
Below are the key strategic changes we are implementing:
- New 7-Week Structured Training Programme
We are moving from a 3-week intensive model to a 7-week structured system with shorter, more digestible sessions.
- Weekday sessions: Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays (6–9 PM)
- Weekend sessions remain 7 weekends
- More time for mastery, less pressure
- Consistent pacing based on global best practices
This change directly addresses feedback on speed, overload, and assimilation.
-
Official Launch of the “Buddy System” (6-Week Support Programme)
Every new candidate/student will be assigned a trained advisor (“Buddy”) for their first 6 weeks.
The Buddy System will ensure:
- Someone checks in on them
- Someone guides them
- Someone follows up
- Someone ensures they don’t get lost in the process
This is one of our biggest innovations for 2026, radically improving student experience.
-
New Training Quality & Transparency Framework
To improve accountability:
- Trainers will now receive immediate feedback after every session
- Random feedback calls will be conducted weekly
- Monthly trainer performance review meetings will resume
- A new trainer onboarding and vetting process begins in January
Our goal is zero surprises, consistent standards.
-
Programme Office Redesign
We have restructured the programme office with:
- Clearer roles
- New KPIs
- Stronger communication expectations
- Better oversight
- More proactive candidate engagement
This department will operate with a renewed focus on visibility, ownership, and excellence.
-
New Technology Enhancements
In partnership with the IT team::
- Central video FAQ library coming in December
- TDL platform facelift
- Integrated ticketing system
- Dynamic event pages for better conversions
- Improved onboarding and access systems
These upgrades will support a smoother, modern, tech-enabled learning journey.
-
New Post-Job Orientation Programme (Monthly)
“When a child enters a new village, they must learn its language; only then can they sit confidently among its elders”
In the same way, stepping into a new workplace, especially in the UK requires more than skill. It demands awareness, adaptability, and cultural confidence.
To support this transition, every candidate who secures a role will now join our monthly Post-Job Orientation Workshop, designed to equip them with the tools to not just enter their new environment, but to thrive in it. The workshop will focus on:
- Expectations in UK workplaces
- Employer rights and responsibilities
- Cultural integration
- Confidence and communication
- Early performance strategy
We don’t just train people, we want them to thrive in their new roles.
Building a Stronger Social Community in 2026
As we move into 2026, one thing has become clear: career development alone is not enough. To truly transform lives, we must build a community; one that grows together, learns together, and supports one another beyond certificates and job titles.
That is why we have curated a new series of Knowledge, Success & Society (KSS) Sessions designed not just to upskill, but to expand thinking, strengthen confidence, and enrich personal growth.
Here are some of the transformational topics lined up:
- Mastering Credit & Home Ownership: A Practical Guide to Building and Buying Smart
- The Future of Project Management: How AI, automation, and data analytics are reshaping the industry
- Smart Tools for Smarter Projects: Boosting productivity and collaboration
- Building Your Dream: Entrepreneurial Blueprint for Success
- Understanding Lean and Agile Methodology
- Using Power BI for Reporting and Performance Tracking
- Creating & Managing Confluence Requirement Lists
These sessions represent our vision for 2026 holistic development, not just career advancement. Because when people grow in knowledge, confidence, financial intelligence, and community, they grow in every area of life.
Celebrating 600+ Success Stories & Key Achievements in 2025
This year, our community achieved something remarkable:
600 verified success stories; a milestone that reflects your hard work and our shared belief that transformation is possible when people are empowered with the right tools.
Here are some of the trends that defined our 2025 achievements:
- Project Management roles led the success stories
- Women made up 52% of all successful candidates; a powerful shift in gender representation
- Healthcare was the No.1 industry candidates transitioned from
Every story matters. Every story inspires the next. And together, they remind us why our mission is bigger than classrooms and curriculums, it is about creating opportunities that ripple through families, communities, and generations.

A Moment of Reflection
This year taught us that excellence is not a destination; it is a discipline.
Like the saying goes:
“The child who is not embraced by the village will burn it down to feel its warmth.”
We are choosing to embrace our students more tightly.
We are choosing to listen.
We are choosing to evolve.
We are choosing to lead.
2026: The Year of Realignment, Quality, and Global Expansion
Tritek is stepping into a new phase:
- Sharper structures.
- Stronger systems.
- Higher expectations.
- Deeper student support.
- And above all, a renewed commitment to excellence.
Thank you for your trust, your honesty, and your resilience.
The best of Tritek is ahead of us.
Warm regards,
Dr. Adeshola,
CEO & Founder, Tritek Academy
