A note to parents

Your child's school is teaching them the skill that is rewriting every job.

Three minutes to understand what that actually means — before you decide anything.

2,500+Students learning
23Nigerian schools
300+Courses
The whole thing, in one sentence Your child learns to use Artificial Intelligence properly — the same tools currently changing work in banking, medicine, law and business — and finishes with a certificate carrying their name, your school's name, and a link anyone can verify online.
First, something to try

AI is not coming. It is already in your child's day.

Tap each one you thought was just “normal phone stuff”.

👈 Tap the boxes — all eight of them
Uncovered 0 of 8
Every single one is Artificial Intelligence. Your child already touches all eight before lunch — but nobody has ever taught them how any of it works, or how to make it work for them. That gap is what this programme closes.
Make it personal

What do you want your child to become?

Pick one. We will show you what AI is already doing to that profession — today, not in ten years.

How it actually runs

What a term looks like

No extra classes to attend. No timetable to rearrange.

1

The school gives your child a code

They open the site on any phone or laptop, enter the code, and their courses unlock. No card, no app store, nothing to install.

2

They learn in short bursts

Each lesson takes about two minutes and asks them questions as they go — it is closer to a game than a textbook. Sixteen lessons make up a course.

3

They do real assignments

Not multiple choice. They write, they build, they submit — and get feedback. Their teacher can see exactly how far they have gone.

4

They sit a real exam

Ten questions at the end of every course, and 70% to pass. It is genuinely scored. Failing means going back and learning it properly.

5

They earn the certificate — and compete

The certificate carries their name and the school's. Then comes Build Week: teams pitch real projects, and the top three students in your school win prizes.

What they walk away with

Put your child's name on it.

This is the document they finish the term holding.

Sample only — the real one is issued when your child passes.

Why the verification link matters. Anyone — a university, an employer, a scholarship board — can type that ID into our site and see whether the certificate is genuine. It cannot be printed at a business centre. That is the difference between a certificate and a souvenir.
Let us talk about money

What it costs, plainly.

Two separate things. Nobody should be confused about which is which.

1. The school's programme fee
Set by your school

Your school runs the programme for its students and sets this fee itself — it varies from school to school, so ask them directly for the figure. It covers your child's place for the term — the courses, the assignments, the teacher tracking their progress, and Build Week.

You pay this to the school, not to us.

2. The certificate — and it is optional

Your child can take every lesson, do every assignment and sit the exam without paying us a naira. The fee is only for issuing the verified certificate, and it depends on the course:

FREE33 courses
₦1,000Standard
₦1,500Most courses
₦2,000Advanced

Roughly the price of one textbook — for a credential that can be verified anywhere in the world.

And some of it comes back. A share of certificate income across every participating school becomes a national prize pool. The top three students in your school win from it. It is not a refund scheme — it is a competition, and your child can win it.
The honest answers

What parents actually ask us

It is the opposite of scrolling. Every lesson lasts about two minutes and stops to ask a question — they cannot skim it. There are written assignments and an exam with a 70% pass mark. Their teacher sees exactly what they completed and when. Compare that to the hours already going to TikTok with nothing to show at the end.
No. It runs in the browser on any smartphone — the same one they already use. Nothing to install, and the lessons are text and images, not video, so it does not eat data.
There is no fixed timetable — your child learns when they have twenty free minutes, not when we say so. And this is not a competing subject: the study-skills and research courses feed directly back into their exam preparation. Nothing here replaces their school work.
There is no open chat and no strangers. Accounts are created through your school's code, so the students on the platform are their schoolmates. The only thing your child “talks to” is our AI tutor — a study assistant, not a person — and it answers in English, Yoruba or Pidgin.
Neither were most of the 2,500 students already on it. The courses assume zero knowledge — the first lesson of Introduction to Artificial Intelligence explains what AI is, in plain language. If your child can use WhatsApp, they can do this.
Let us be straight: it does not replace WAEC or a degree, and we will never claim it does. What it is, is verifiable evidence — carrying your child's name, your school's name, and an ID anybody can check on our site — that they finished structured coursework and passed a real exam in a skill employers are hiring for right now. For a fifteen-year-old with nothing else on paper, that is a genuine head start.
They already can — the tools are free and one tap away. The realistic choice is not whether they use AI, but whether anyone ever teaches them the line between using it and hiding behind it. That is exactly what the AI Ethics and Responsible Technology course is for.

So — what do you do now?

Two minutes of your time, and your child is in.

1 Tell the school yesPay your child's programme fee to the school the same way you handle any other school payment.
2 Collect the codeThe school hands your child a short code. They enter it once and everything unlocks.
3 Ask them about it on FridayLet them show you what they built. That conversation is the whole point.
