Educate!’s next goal is to build on our motorbike bootcamp model in Kenya to create industry-specific ( e.g. agriculture, tourism) and target group-specific (e.g. girls, literacy catch-up) bootcamps.

These entrepreneurial skills trainings aim to provide out-of-school youth with an education-to-employment pathway when traditional secondary school is out of reach. We are seeking partners to build bootcamps that target youth in different groups and within different industries across Africa.

1. Partner with us to co-design new bootcamps for out-of-school youth

   Are you interested in helping build bootcamps to impact millions of out-of-school youth across Africa?

   Educate! is seeking partnerships with major foundations, bilateral and multilateral institutions, and governments interested in serving out-of-school youth with an education-to-employment pathway. Our bootcamp framework is adaptable and aims to co-design bootcamps tailored to different target industries (like agriculture, tourism, small-scale manufacturing) and different groups (like girls, literacy/numeracy catch-up).

2. Provide resources to support our motorbike bootcamp in Kenya

   Do you represent a telecom, fuel, services or consumer products company that could provide services to participants?

   We are looking for industry-specific partners to add their products or services to our growing business marketplace for participants of our bootcamps for motorbike drivers/couriers in Kenya. We’d be eager to explore how a partnership might create greater opportunities and impact for youth.

Government Partners: Our current eLearning platform, NawiriPro, has been endorsed by the Kenyan Ministry of Trade. The Kenyan Ministry of Health has been our quality assurance partner to ensure we are communicating the appropriate and approved health practices around COVID-19.

Industry Partners: Leaders in e-commerce and asset financing, including Sendy and Aspira, are helping to place youth in delivery jobs given the increased demand for these services and are supporting youth with access to loans for smartphones and motorbikes.

Funding & Advisory Partners: Key supporters and thought partners have given us the ability to design and deliver NawiriPro’s business training and safety course and resources to motorbike couriers.
