Global Community of Practice from Team4Tech Foundation

Team4Tech is a global impact accelerator for education-focused NGOs, providing them with technology-supported, evidence-based practices to advance education for employability.  It currently supports 1,000+ NGOs from more than 100 countries in a free online community of practice, with courses, learning cohorts, toolkits, webinars and pro bono consulting from skilled volunteers, so that they can build employability skills with their 43M+ learners.  Its content and tools are developed by expert educators and localised by its regional hub leads in Africa, South Asia, and Latin America, to ensure that they are responding to local needs.

Team4Tech’s partner NGOs achieve goals that advance educator and learner growth, learner engagement, and organisational sustainability and scalability. These positive outcomes support NGOs in expanding their impact on regional educational ecosystems, enabling millions of learners to demonstrate digital readiness, master foundational skills, and prepare for quality employment opportunities.

In one example, conducted over five weeks, a collaborative learning cohort allowed participants to exchange knowledge and gain strategies and tools to effectively leverage Team4Tech’s Digital Literacy Toolkit’s content in their educational programmes. Participants representing NGOs from Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, Sierra Leone, and South Africa improved in knowledge and understanding, definitions, evidence-based practices, and the components of digital literacy, from a 63% average score on pre-course assessment to a 91% average score on post-course assessment.

Another case study is the implementing generative AI tools in education NGOs learning cohort. This ongoing four-month programme guides participants through seven asynchronous learning modules and weekly collaborative meetings for knowledge-sharing and peer learning. Structured coursework and ongoing coaching supports staff from 10 African NGOs in acquiring a deeper understanding of how AI tools—such as generative AI, automation, and data analytics—can improve educational outcomes, increase operational efficiency, and scale their programmes. NGOs develop their own implementation plan over the course of the cohort, and are supported after the course with an implementation grant and ongoing coaching from Team4Tech experts in the region.
