On Monday, March 30, 2026, Fidelity Bank Plc will host a Gele Masterclass to help women build practical, income-generating skills, strengthen professional visibility, and accelerate career growth.
This event will be the second part of a series of masterclasses and support initiatives planned for March 2026 in commemoration of International Women’s Day under the theme Give to Gain.
On March 18, 2026, the lender, through its women-focused proposition, HerFidelity, hosted a masterclass on communication and presentation.
The session offered practical guidance on audience engagement, event moderation, confidence-building, and personal branding, with a strong focus on women looking to improve their public speaking and professional presence.
HerFidelity is positioning the session as a celebration of cultural expression and a marketable skill women can turn into a source of income.
In addition to the masterclasses, the bank will provide professional headshot sessions to help participants update their personal and professional profiles.
“At Fidelity Bank, we believe that empowering women economically creates an impact that extends beyond the individual. It strengthens families, grows businesses, and uplifts communities. That is why we have designed an elaborate plan to upskill women throughout this month.
“We want women to leave these sessions with practical tools they can apply immediately, whether that is speaking confidently in public, building a stronger personal brand, or learning a skill that can generate income,” the Divisional Head of Small and Medium-scale Enterprises Banking at Fidelity Bank, Ms Ugochi Osinigwe, said.
Earlier this month, the bank reaffirmed its commitment to women’s economic empowerment with the signing of strategic MoUs with partner organisations at the launch of its Give Her Power initiative on March 5, 2026.
The collaborations, anchored on the bank’s HerFidelity Apprenticeship Programme, are designed to expand access to vocational training, business support, and sustainable enterprise opportunities for women across multiple sectors.
As part of the initiative, Fidelity Bank is distributing 1,000 sewing and grinding machines to empower women-led microbusinesses across Nigeria.
