Hi Asondo,
At this time we are not selling any training outside of special topics that are covered in depth though our Ebooks.
You are welcome to use this website to help you learn about home electrical wiring. You will notice that this information focuses on electrical wiring in the United States, however you may apply the electrical theories for the electrical systems found in Africa as you see fit.
