ExploreAI Academy has signed a partnership agreement with ALX to train thousands of African students in data analytics and data science in mid-2023. This partnership is a major milestone for ExploreAI Academy, as it will accelerate their impact aspirations by about five years.
Since its inception in 2018, ExploreAI Academy’s goal has been to teach tech skills to deserving young Africans that lead to great job opportunities. The Academy began with 100 sponsored students at a single Cape Town campus and has grown to over 1,000 students studying across Africa using multiple tuition options.
ALX is a global organization that focuses on identifying, developing, and equipping Africa’s next generation of leaders by accelerating their careers through technology and professional skills. The ROOM, ALX’s talent community, supports ALX graduates’ professional growth and connects them to worldwide employment opportunities.
ALX has chosen ExploreAI Academy as their preferred partner to train thousands of students in their network in data analytics and data science. This partnership will help with marketing, finding the best candidates, and placing graduates in compelling jobs.
The partnership agreement will see three cohorts of thousands of students enroll in data analytics and data science courses from mid-2023. To prepare for this partnership, ExploreAI Academy is scaling and securing its learning platform, building new content, and innovating its delivery blueprint for low-facilitation training programs.
ExploreAI Academy sees ALX’s selection of them as an incredible validation of their content, teaching philosophy, and impact. The partnership culminates six years of work, thousands of hours of content creation, and the collective aspiration of ExploreAI’s dedicated staff and students.
This partnership is a significant milestone for ExploreAI Academy, as it will enable them to reach even more deserving young Africans and equip them with the necessary tech skills to succeed in their careers. It will also allow ALX to achieve its mission of accelerating the careers of Africa’s next generation of leaders.
