SOLUTIONS / EDUCATION
Run the institution and grow the talent behind it
For schools, universities, and education ministries. School management software, connectivity, LMS deployment, and OpasAcademy capacity building — one delivery team from primary-school fee collection to university cyber and AI pathways.
THE CHALLENGE
Education technology has to fit every level and reach every learner
A primary school needs fee collection that works over M-PESA and attendance the office can actually keep. A university needs a resilient LMS, campus WiFi, and a pipeline into cyber and AI careers. A ministry needs digital-literacy delivered at national scale. These are very different problems.
Most institutions solve them with a patchwork of vendors and free tools that break at exam time or leave student data — including data on minors — poorly governed under the Data Protection Act. We scope the right programme for your level and deliver it as one.
- Manual fees & recordsFees, marks, and attendance tracked on paper or spreadsheets that do not reconcile.
- Connectivity that fails at scaleLabs and campuses that buckle under exam load or never reach rural schools.
- Student data on minorsSensitive records with consent and governance obligations under the DPA.
- A shortage of local skillsToo few engineers coming through — and no clear pipeline from campus to career.
OUR APPROACH / 01
Software that runs the institution day to day
For schools we deliver management software for students, teachers, fees, exams, and a parent portal — with M-PESA fee payment integrated as standard. For universities and colleges we deploy and maintain the LMS, whether that is Moodle, Canvas, or a custom platform, with content-migration support.
- School management: students, fees, exams, and parent portal
- M-PESA fee collection integrated as standard
- LMS deployment and content migration for higher education
Off the paper trail
Fees, marks, and attendance that reconcile — and parents can see.
OUR APPROACH / 02
Connectivity that reaches, and protection that holds
We design campus WiFi and computer-lab networks that hold up under exam load, and rural-school connectivity — solar-integrated for off-grid environments — so learning is not limited by where a school sits. Student data, including data on minors, is governed to the Data Protection Act with consent management and records governance.
- Campus WiFi and lab networks built for exam-day load
- Rural and off-grid school connectivity, solar-integrated
- DPA-aligned student-data protection, with consent management
Reach every learner
Connectivity that works in the rural school as well as the city campus.
OUR APPROACH / 03
Build the skills — and the next generation of engineers
Through OpasAcademy we deliver digital-literacy and cybersecurity-awareness programmes, run donor-funded national skills initiatives with train-the-trainer models for scale, and build apprenticeship pipelines and curriculum partnerships with universities. Our aim is to grow the local talent pool that OpasSecure and the wider industry will hire from.
- Digital-literacy and cyber-awareness programmes for staff and students
- Donor-funded national programmes with train-the-trainer delivery
- University apprenticeship pipelines and curriculum partnerships
Grow the talent
Where the next generation of African engineers comes from.
RELEVANT PRACTICES
Every level, one delivery team
From primary-school fee management to university career pipelines — a single team across software, connectivity, security, and training.
Education is the one sector where the technology and the talent are the same project. We digitise the institution and, through OpasAcademy, help produce the engineers who will run it — because the systems we build for Kenyan schools and universities should be maintained by Kenyans who trained on them.
