About us
Who we are?
We are here to learn and share our experiences in our different endeavors
The goal of African Professionals Connect is to provide a forum of association that ensures coordination and cooperation in careers, businesses and investments, to strengthen alliances and uphold our African Values through social relationships among African Professionals living in the United States of America.
As Professionals from Africa, we have similar challenges and concerns. The difficulty associated with securing a dream career, choosing new friends and associates, managing workplace politics, finances, fitting in, strain relationships, distance from home and culture shock, taking care of family and loved ones and their needs back home, and a strong desire to participate in creating more opportunities in Africa and the continent’s growth.
These are burdens that we all
carry; in addition to family issues that could interfere with getting the best of ourselves.
OUR GOAL
It is our goal that this organization build a community of hardworking, resourceful and wealthy African Professionals that are strategically poised to become not just successful, but take up key leadership positions in diverse fields such in government policy and decision making, academia, business, healthcare hospitality and entertainment industry in major cities in the United States by 2026.
It is our goal and commitment that you collaborate with us today, and find answers, resources and tools that will help you grow your network of friends and associates. We are here to learn and share our experiences in our different endeavors, benefit from hearing and learning from successful and accomplished professionals, and persons who have already been in your shoes, and spare you the time and resources of going through, and learning from your own experiences.
