Operations BI Analyst (Nairobi, Kenya)
About Us
At EIDU, we are working to empower governments to secure foundational literacy and numeracy for every child. We come in as a reliable partner to enhance the existing systems with our technology-based solution: a platform that integrates multiple proven educational interventions, designed to meaningfully impact all key stakeholders in any public education system - learners, teachers, education officers and ministry staff.
Our solution is built for scale: Through partnerships with 38 governments, we currently serve over 770,000 students in Kenya and Nigeria - and are aiming to reach tens of millions within the next few years. In a year-long randomised control trial conducted by external researchers, endline results indicated 0.53 SD improvement in learning outcomes with EIDU, making EIDU one of the top 10% of education interventions in the low- and middle-income context.
EIDU is funded by well-known development agencies, foundations, and impact investors.
We constantly refine our approach to enhance effectiveness and keep our platform at the forefront of educational impact, for example through meaningful projects with leading technology companies to further enhance learning outcomes through AI.
