Collaboration: Creating a Platform For Convenient Student Learning

By Amy Baty-Herbert | Project Leader

Develop Africa & Saylor Collaboration for students
Develop Africa & Saylor Collaboration for students

Education is a powerful tool for empowerment, primarily when delivered effectively to those who need it most. Develop Africa, in collaboration with Saylor, has taken a significant step toward achieving this goal by supporting students in their educational journeys.  

Develop Africa, in partnership with Saylor, allows students to learn at their own pace and convenience. Through this collaboration, Saylor offered various lecture materials and content covering multiple subject areas. Initial Impact In its first phase, the program benefited three students, showcasing the potential for personalized education. These students attended weekly meetings at the Develop Africa Hub in Freetown, where they accessed Saylor’s content using computers provided by the organization.

Focus on Practical Learning: The program emphasizes practical knowledge tailored to the student’s interests and career goals. For instance, Marian: Focused on business administration, Marian learned the essentials of developing a business plan, expanded her entrepreneurial knowledge, and understood what it takes to succeed in business. Haja: She dedicated her time to improving her English grammar, particularly mastering various tenses. Additionally, she delved into the history and fundamentals of computer science.

Sustaining the Initiative. Develop Africa’s commitment to online training remains unwavering. The organization supports students through tangible resources such as generator fuel, internet access, and computers. This ensures that the educational process continues without interruption, reinforcing the sustainability of this impactful program.

The Develop Africa and Saylor partnership is opening doors to personalized learning, career development, and practical education—opportunities that would not be possible without donors like you.  Because of you, more girls can dream big, learn freely, and pursue their ambitions with confidence.

Thank you for being a part of this journey and for investing in the next generation of leaders!

 

Warmest regards,

Amy and the Develop Africa Team
