Focused on training individuals with in-demand tech skills, Nigerian edtech startup AltSchool has expanded into Europe. 

This follows the company’s successful participation in the SuperCharger Ventures accelerator programme, one of the largest edtech-focused accelerators globally. 

The new European operations will be based in Malta, where the startup plans to set up a hybrid learning model, blending online courses with in-person engagements for greater learner interaction and support.

AltSchool was founded in 2021 to provide accessible, high-quality education in areas like engineering, data analytics, and business. 

The startup has already established a strong presence in Africa, with over 100,000 learners across 12 countries, and it is now looking to extend its reach to European markets. 

By 2025, AltSchool plans to welcome its first cohort of learners in Malta, with initial programmes covering cloud engineering, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and data science.

AltSchool’s founder and CEO, Adewale Yusuf, explained that the company’s mission is to create opportunities for individuals to transform their lives through accessible education, while also supporting businesses in building the teams they need to drive innovation. 

He noted the growing demand for tech skills across Europe, especially in light of the digital skills shortages that many companies face. “Talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not,” Yusuf said, emphasising the startup’s focus on addressing this gap.

As part of its expansion strategy, AltSchool will be adopting a hybrid learning approach in Europe, combining its successful online model with in-person sessions in Malta. 

This is a change from its predominantly virtual operations in Africa, where the company has garnered considerable attention for its flexible learning programmes.

Rachael Onoja, the head of innovation and market expansion at AltSchool, noted that this approach allows the startup to leverage the best elements of traditional and modern education methods. “We want to take the best of both sides,” Onoja explained.

In addition to individual learners, AltSchool will explore business-to-business (B2B) partnerships in Europe, offering tailored training programmes to help organisations upskill their employees. 

This will allow the startup to diversify its revenue streams, which have traditionally focused on individual learners. Onoja also revealed that the company is in talks with local businesses to offer enterprise licensing for workforce development.

AltSchool’s expansion into Europe marks a critical juncture in its growth journey. The company is actively seeking new hires in business development, marketing, and content production to support its efforts. 

As the European market presents new challenges, AltSchool’s core offerings in cloud engineering, cybersecurity, AI, and data science are expected to address the pressing demand for skilled professionals in these fields.

Shortly, AltSchool aims to establish further partnerships with local universities, governments, and businesses to enhance its impact and expand its accreditation in Malta.
