PRESS RELEASE
Abuja, Nigeria – July 7, 2025 – OneBarrow International Limited is proud to announce its official certification by the Centre for Management Development (CMD), Nigeria’s foremost regulator for training and capacity development institutions. This milestone affirms OneBarrow’s commitment to excellence in leadership development, technical training, and organizational transformation across the private and public sectors.
This certification directly supports OneBarrow’s core strategic direction, particularly through its flagship initiatives, iDoctorAccess and iDoctorAccess Carelink. Both programs are designed to democratize healthcare access by placing doctors within a 5KM radius of every Nigerian through pharmacies, labs, and mobile outreach systems. As certified trainers, OneBarrow will now offer CMD-accredited leadership and workforce development programs to doctors, community health workers, health administrators, and corporate organizations, enhancing service delivery, productivity, and public trust.
“This recognition by CMD reinforces our mission to build capacity at every level of the health system while simultaneously aligning with broader national goals for human capital development,” said Yemi Ajao, CEO of OneBarrow International Ltd. “It strengthens our mandate to train leaders who can scale local solutions with global relevance.”
The CMD certification marks a major step in advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that are integral to OneBarrow’s operational philosophy. In particular:
- SDG 3 – Good Health and Well-being: Through iDoctorAccess Carelink, CMD-backed training will enhance clinical governance, preventive health outreach, and digital care management.
- SDG 4 – Quality Education: The Community Capability Initiative (CCI), now housed under CMD-certified training, empowers NYSC corps members and young professionals to acquire workforce-relevant skills.
- SDG 8 – Decent Work and Economic Growth: By equipping professionals with transformational business and health skills, OneBarrow contributes to improved job readiness and enterprise growth.
- SDG 17 – Partnerships for the Goals: The certification enhances OneBarrow’s ability to co-develop strategic learning initiatives with partners in government, health, education, and CSR sectors.
As OneBarrow continues to scale its integrated health equity and development models, the CMD certification provides a framework for quality assurance, learning impact, and national policy alignment. It is also a testament to the organization’s readiness to support reform-driven institutions, offer public-private training solutions, and facilitate sustainable outcomes across Nigeria and the broader African region.
