It can—and some institutions abroad already do. In South Africa, certain universities have elective modules on currency markets under economics or finance programs. The challenge in Nigeria is regulation: forex trading here is largely seen as speculative and risky, and the CBN is strict about how it’s promoted.
If a Nigerian higher institution wanted to offer it, it would probably need to structure it as part of a financial markets, economics, or risk management course rather than a “get-rich” skill. The curriculum would have to cover macroeconomics, monetary policy, trading psychology, and risk control—not just “how to enter trades.”
Done right, it could produce graduates who understand forex as a legitimate global market, not just a quick-profit hustle. Done wrong, it would look like a Ponzi recruitment scheme and get shut down.
