The Microfinance Agricultural Learning and Development Center Limited (MLDC) is the capacity-building vehicle for the Nigerian Microfinance sector. CBN and NDIC support MLDC as an offshoot of the Nigerian Microfinance Platform (NMP) with critical stakeholders in the microfinance space like NAMB and Development partners like AFOS and GIZ duly supported by the German Government.

MLDC - The Rationale  
The Microfinance Agricultural Learning and Development Centre (MLDC) is envisioned as a resource centre for all microfinance and agricultural institutions and their stakeholders in Nigeria and beyond (as it matures). Some key considerations are listed below:
•	There is no such institution that caters to the specific training needs of microfinance institutions in Nigeria, also the exponential growth and role of microfinance in macro-economic development created an urgent need for capacity development.
•	Some development partners have also had intervention programmes to address the skill gaps in the industry whereby these initiatives are not substantially coordinated to achieve synergic effect and impact.
