AltSchool, an innovative edtech startup, has officially expanded into Europe. It announced this significant milestone on Monday during the SuperCharger Demo Day. 

Founded to democratise education, AltSchool aims to create accessible pathways for individuals to transform their lives and help businesses build necessary talent. 

CEO Adewale Yusuf emphasised, “At AltSchool, we believe that talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not.” He stated, “Our mission is to bridge the gap between potential and opportunity, ensuring every learner can thrive in a rapidly changing world.”

AltSchool picks Malta as European hub

With a presence in over seven African countries, AltSchool’s European operations will adopt a hybrid learning model, with Malta serving as a strategic base for in-person engagements. 

Yusuf explained, “We recognise that different regions have unique needs. Our hybrid model allows us to effectively tailor our approach to meet those needs.” 

Initial programs will focus on high-demand fields such as cloud engineering, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and data science. 

This shift from a primarily online model in Africa reflects the startup’s commitment to adapting its educational offerings to meet regional workforce challenges.

AltSchool has already gained traction in Europe, ranking third in registered users in the UK, following Nigeria and Kenya. Since its inception in 2021, the startup has enrolled over 100,000 students across various programs. 

Yusuf noted, “The response from European students has been overwhelmingly positive. It shows that our approach resonates with learners eager to gain skills that matter.” 

The startup also explores business-to-business (B2B) models to strengthen its revenue streams.

AltSchool: More than just skills

A key aspect of AltSchool’s mission is not just providing skills but also offering recognised certifications. The startup received full accreditation from the Accreditation Service for International Schools, Colleges and Universities (ASIC) in February 2024 and is pursuing similar accreditation in Malta. 

Yusuf remarked, “Accreditation is crucial for us. It validates the quality of our programs and ensures that our graduates are recognised by employers worldwide.” 

Although AltSchool does not guarantee jobs for graduates, Yusuf noted that the career team is actively working on initiatives to enhance job placement opportunities post-graduation.

He stated, “We are dedicated to supporting our students even after they complete their courses. We aim to connect them with opportunities that align with their skills.”

This expansion into Europe marks a significant step for AltSchool, which seeks to redefine tech education and workforce development globally. 

By leveraging resources from the SuperCharger Ventures accelerator program, which provides mentorship and access to a network of partners, AltSchool aims to maximise its impact in the European market. 

Yusuf concluded, “This is just the beginning for us. We are excited about what lies ahead and are committed to making a difference in the lives of learners across Europe.”
