Emmanuel Ukasoanya
Founder, Career Bridge Academy | Product Analyst | Author | Podcast Host
Career Bridge Academy was founded by Emmanuel Ukasoanya, a Product Analyst with Acasta Europe Ltd, author and host of the See It Say It Podcast.
Emmanuel is passionate about personal development, continuous education and creating opportunities that can transform people's lives.
Emmanuel is a graduate of Benson Idahosa University and holds an MSc from the University of Bolton.
His vision for Career Bridge Academy grew from a belief that acquiring knowledge should not be the end of the journey. People also need opportunities to apply what they learn, demonstrate their capabilities and prepare themselves to pursue meaningful career opportunities.
That philosophy is at the heart of Career Bridge Academy and its approach:
Learn→Apply→Prepare→Launch
Beyond Career Bridge
Alongside founding Career Bridge Academy, Emmanuel works as a Product Analyst with Acasta Europe Ltd, where his professional experience contributes to his understanding of the relationship between skills, practical capability and the modern workplace.
He is also the host of the See It Say It Podcast, a platform centred around meaningful conversations, experiences, ideas and personal and professional growth.
Author
Emmanuel is the author of Quit School and Embrace Education.
The book explores the distinction between schooling and lifelong education and encourages individuals to continue learning and developing themselves long after they have left formal education, including those who may not have had access to traditional schooling.
Its broader message reflects Emmanuel's belief in continuous learning, personal development, opportunity and the role education can play in helping people improve their lives and pursue greater economic independence.
This philosophy also influences the thinking behind Career Bridge Academy: education should ultimately help people develop the knowledge and capability to move forward.
The Vision Behind Career Bridge
Emmanuel's ambition is to build Career Bridge Academy into a trusted career development platform that helps individuals bridge the gap between learning and opportunity.
Learning should lead somewhere.
Career Bridge therefore goes beyond teaching technical knowledge. Its programmes are designed to help learners develop practical capability, build evidence of what they can do, prepare themselves professionally and create a clearer plan for pursuing career opportunities.
“Learning should not be the end of the journey. It should be the beginning of what you are able to do with it.”Emmanuel Ukasoanya, Founder, Career Bridge Academy
