About OIStride Academy

Learn by doing. That's the whole idea.

Career growth, practical project management skill, and AI fluency are usually sold by three different vendors. For one person, they're actually the same journey. OIStride Academy exists to be the one place that treats them that way.

Mission

Package proven practice, not unproven ideas

To equip people with practical tech skills they can confidently apply in the real world through practitioner-led, hands-on learning.

Every framework taught at OIStride Academy has already been used on real projects, not adapted from a textbook. A curriculum that's been taught before. Coaching frameworks that have worked before. An AI-assisted build workflow that's already shipped something real. Nothing here is theory waiting to be tested on you.

Vision

A trusted home for practical growth

To become a trusted home for practical technology learning, helping people across Africa and beyond build the skills and confidence to do meaningful work in a technology-driven world.

Our Journey

How OIStride Academy came together

2026

OIStride founded

Built to bring Jed's project management training, career coaching, and AI-build work under one roof, separate from any single employer.

Next

First cohort opens

The Agile Project Management cohort opens enrollment, alongside the Career Acceleration and AI Fluency & Building tracks.

Later

Community & alumni network

As cohorts complete, an alumni community forms. Graduation is the start, not the finish line.

Obomhense Idemudia

Jed is a Senior Product Manager and Agile trainer who has spent his career at the intersection of product development, project delivery, and digital transformation, across fintech, healthcare, and travel-tech. He has trained and mentored professionals across Nigeria, Canada, the UK, the USA, and West Africa.

His approach comes from one belief: learning should change the way you work, not just what you know. Every session he runs is built around real business scenarios and industry-standard tools, not slides.

How Jed Works

Learning should change the way you work, not just what you know.

This is the framework behind every session at OIStride Academy, because real learning happens through action, not memorisation.
