…Appoints Tabitha Kayvu as Country Manager

Edtech startup AltSchool Africa, often described as the African version of BloomTech, has set its sights on Kenya, its second-largest market by revenue. 

This expansion will aid AltSchool in achieving its mission to equip ten million Africans with in-demand skills by 2030.

Founded in 2021, AltSchool offers a unique alternative to traditional academic institutions. By leveraging modern technology and focusing on practical, hands-on learning, the platform empowers individuals to gain skills relevant to high-growth sectors like business, data, engineering, media, and the creative economy.

One of the biggest challenges facing Africa is the mismatch between the skills job seekers possess and the skills employers demand. With an estimated 10 million job seekers and only 3 million employed, AltSchool aims to bridge this gap by providing accessible, affordable, and effective training programs.

The company’s flexible pricing model, ranging from $20 to $50 per month, caters to a diverse range of learners. Additionally, AltSchool offers income-sharing agreements (ISAs), allowing students to pay a percentage of their future income instead of upfront fees. This innovative approach removes financial barriers and opens doors for even the most underprivileged individuals.

AltSchool’s expansion to Kenya is driven by the country’s strong potential and its position as the company’s second-highest revenue generator. In setting up a local office and appointing Tabitha Kayvu as Country Manager, AltSchool reiterates its obligation to provide dedicated support and faster processing of local payments for Kenyan learners.

The company’s success is not limited to Kenya. AltSchool has already established a presence in the United States and Rwanda, and its courses are attracting learners from over 105 countries. With partnerships secured with key stakeholders in Kenya and ongoing talks with agencies to expand access to its programs, AltSchool is set for further growth and impact.

Adewale Yusuf, co-founder of AltSchool, envisions a future where ten million Africans are equipped with the skills necessary to secure meaningful employment and contribute to the continent’s economic development. As the company focuses on practical, industry-relevant skills and utilising innovative learning models, AltSchool is focused on building a brighter future for African youth and the continent as a whole.
