Schoolinka, an Edtech company solving the problem of poor teaching quality, has launched its digital platform aimed at enhancing high-quality teacher training and connecting teachers with job opportunities in partner schools. Aligned with the company's mission to empower teachers for successful and fulfilling careers, the platform features a robust Learning Management System (LMS) and a Job board.
The LMS provides educators with robust and versatile access to high-quality and self- paced interactive course contents, including quizzes and assessments. These courses are also tailored to different career levels, where both early and mid-level teachers find courses that suit them.
The Job board on the other hand connects teachers with job opportunities matching their skills, experiences, and qualifications, facilitating schools in discovering exceptional teaching talents.
Joy Medupin, the Head of Learning at Schoolinka, emphasized the extensive research that went into carefully developing and curating the courses to resonate with teachers that translates to quality learning experience for students.
Medupin mentioned that the platform offers mentorship opportunities by top education professionals, a networking community of educators across the globe and exposure of educators to the use of technology and Artificial Intelligence.
She, however, urged schools to sign up on the platform as it gives access to cost effective, high-quality staff training, enables placement of job ads, as well as helping with teacher recruitment, while qualified teachers are paired with schools.
Olumide Oyeleye, the Product Designer highlighted the effort that went into the development of the product. From research, to design, to development, according to him, the priority was to build a user-friendly platform for educators.
He further emphasized how signing up on the platform helps educators get access to high-quality, affordable, self-paced and relevant Continuous Professional Development(CPD) courses.
