Design, localize, pilot, and scale practical education transformation across East Africa.
AGES supports governments, schools, universities, TVET institutions, development partners, telecom operators, private-sector actors, and global education companies to turn Finnish and global education expertise into locally relevant implementation. Our work combines technology with strong pedagogy, teacher capacity, practical learning materials, learning-by-doing, school development, student wellbeing, institutional support, and sustainable local delivery.
Finnish-Inspired School & Institutional Development
AGES helps institutions move beyond isolated tools and short-term projects by strengthening the whole learning environment: school improvement planning, Finnish-inspired school models such as OPPI Finland Global Schools, leadership support, curriculum alignment, teacher development, learning materials, quality assurance, student wellbeing, and monitoring of learning outcomes.
Early Childhood, Preschool & Primary Education
AGES supports early and primary learning with practical, child-centered programmes including OPPI Early Years for toddlers to ages 5-6 and FGES Literacy and Numeracy Solutions from early years to Grade 5. The focus is holistic development, wellbeing, daily life skills, creativity, interaction, foundational literacy and numeracy, structured progression, teacher guidance, learner materials, and classroom-ready implementation.
Teacher & Leadership Professional Development
Teachers and leaders remain central to education transformation. AGES supports Teach Like a Finn! and Lead Like a Finn! pathways for Finnish-inspired pedagogy, student-centered learning, lesson planning, curriculum interpretation, classroom innovation, leadership practice, peer communities, and effective use of digital and physical learning materials.
Digital Learning & Assessment Platforms
AGES localizes and implements curriculum-aligned digital learning and assessment platforms that are realistic for African conditions. Solutions include ExamNet for bilingual study tools, AI-powered learner support, practice exams, instant feedback, and progress tracking for primary learners, Corrsy for gamified mobile learning, curriculum-aligned content, micro-learning, and learner engagement, and OnEdu for course creation, blended, collaborative, AI-supported learning, and scalable digital delivery.
TVET, Skills Development & Simulation-Based Learning
AGES supports practical and competency-based learning for TVET, vocational, university, and workforce programmes through AR, VR, XR, and simulation-based learning. With solutions such as 3DBear, learners can practise safely and repeatedly in environments that build workplace readiness, practical skills, sector-specific competence, and confidence where equipment is expensive, risky, limited, or difficult to access.
Partnership & Market Entry Support
AGES is a locally rooted platform for Finnish, European, African, and global education companies seeking to enter or expand in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, and Rwanda. Our feasibility study and market research cover institutional readiness, teacher capacity gaps, demand for digital and non-digital learning, practical and competency-based education, infrastructure, connectivity, policy alignment, partnership models, and scale-up pathways.
