Training Africa's energy and extractives professionals.

ResourcePrime Academy is the learning and certification arm of ResourcePrime — deploying structured, bilingual technical training to the energy, extractives, and climate professionals who keep Africa’s infrastructure running.

Our Mission

Closing the operational knowledge gap — one Certification at a time.

Across West and Central Africa, many energy and infrastructure projects struggle — not because of limited technology or funding, but because of critical skills gaps within operational teams.

ResourcePrime Academy bridges that gap through structured, certified training programmes in English and French for professionals in energy, extractives, infrastructure, and climate sectors.

 From SCADA and CMMS training to ESG and project finance capacity building, we equip professionals with the practical knowledge their projects require and their careers deserve.

Certification partner

Credentials that carry weight.

Every certified programme on ResourcePrime Academy is co-badged with Nova Polytechnic Institute — an accredited institution authorised by MINESUP and MINEFOP in Cameroon and affiliated with the University of Bamenda.

Certificates built for the WCA professional ecosystem

Our certification partnership ensures that every ResourcePrime Academy certificate carries genuine institutional backing — not just a digital badge, but a recognised credential that professionals can present to employers, DFI partners, and regulatory bodies across the region.

Our Intructors

Practitioners who have worked the Sector.

Our instructors and content developers are not academics. They are engineers, compliance specialists, and operational advisors who have worked on DFI-financed projects, operated systems in the field, and navigated the regulatory and fiscal environments they teach.
