About Cohortle

Cohortle is a mission-driven initiative focused on strengthening non-formal and digital education across Africa.

We work with purpose-driven organisations to improve how learning programmes are designed, delivered, and sustained — especially outside traditional classrooms.

Why Cohortle Exists

Across Africa, nonprofits, universities, training hubs, and community organisations are running learning programmes that shape skills, leadership, and opportunity.

Yet many of these programmes face similar challenges: unclear structure, fragmented delivery, low engagement, and limited ability to track or improve outcomes over time.

Cohortle exists to help organisations organise learning better — so programmes are easier to run, learners stay engaged, and impact can grow from one cohort to the next.

What We Do

We partner with organisations to strengthen their learning initiatives by:

  • Improving programme structure and cohort design
  • Supporting effective delivery and facilitation
  • Helping teams reflect on outcomes and improve future cohorts

Our focus is on building capacity within organisations — not replacing their teams or running programmes on their behalf.

How We Work

Cohortle takes a partnership-first approach.

Depending on the organisation and its needs, our work may involve guidance, frameworks, hands-on support, and — where appropriate — digital tools that support structured learning.

The work always starts with the programme and the people behind it.

Who We Work With

We work with organisations committed to learning and long-term impact, including:

  • Nonprofits and foundations
  • University centres and student innovation hubs
  • Training providers and community learning organisations

Our partners typically run cohort-based or structured learning programmes and care deeply about learner outcomes.

Our Belief

We believe that education outside the classroom plays a critical role in Africa’s future.

When organizations are supported to run learning programmes clearly and intentionally, communities grow stronger and impact compounds over time.
