Acadasuite gets AFDB support to develop customised learning device for basic education

With support from the African development bank (AFDB), AcadaSuite looks to develop a customised learning device that uniquely provides different teaching methodologies, which promotes indigenous languages both offline and online at the basic education level in Nigeria.

Acadasuite is a novel digital platform that offers quality, accessible and affordable education to all learners in Africa, starting with Nigeria without underlying limitations.

Developed by Nigerian information technology (IT) and software development company, Norak technologies, Acadasuite is a web-based platform that promotes unified curriculum for schools in Nigeria and contributes to social stability and economic advancement of disadvantaged children.

Iheanyichukwu Enyika, the founder and chief executive of Norak Technologies, said users of the digital platform will get a customised solar-powered mobile learning device, which enables students to access education resources offline to help reduce the challenge of internet connection.

“The overall objective is to reduce the cost of quality education, make it accessible in rural areas,” said Enyika, stating that Acadasuite promotes a unified curriculum for schools in Nigeria.

According to him, Acadasuite seeks to reach one million students by the end of 2022 and empower about 10, 000 teachers within the same period. “Acadasuite is first of its kind; a unique platform that supports and impacts the 21st century educational needs in Africa,” Enyika said.

Femi Egbake, content manager, Acadasuite said, the web-based software application provides support for school administration and management, and disadvantaged children, especially the girl child education drive. “We are on a mission to provide a quality education that is open and affordable through our groundbreaking educational solutions for students, parents, teachers and schools,” he stated.
