Cahoot Learning has been selected to participate in the Global Victoria EdTech Innovation Alliance. This will see their solution tested at Monash University and Universidad Anahuac in Mexico.
EduGrowth and Global Victoria have officially selected Cahoot Learning for the Innovation Sprints, as part of the Global Victoria EdTech Innovation Alliance.
The aim of this program is to enhance the global reputation of Victorian EdTech and education, and provide an example for the Australian EdTech ecosystem of the opportunities available when this testbed model is implemented.
The Alliance will see the selected Innovation Sprints deploy Victorian EdTech solutions both in Victorian and international education institutions, schools, and workplaces. Over 26 weeks, the Sprints will be overseen by an independent researcher appointed to endorse the Sprint testbed design and validate the efficacy of the solution being trialled.
All 9 of the chosen Innovation Sprints exhibit a clear alignment with the Alliance objectives and are committed to transforming teaching and learning experiences around the world.
Cahoot Learning Innovation Sprint
This Sprint will explore how the Cahoot Learning platform can create a better learning experience and outcome for workforce reskilling and upskilling. Through a personalised learning experience, the Cahoot Learning solution aims to investigate how their approach can impact learners in the LATAM region. Overseeing and supporting the project is the team from Monash University’s Executive Education Department.
The Cahoot Learning solution will be tested at Monash University in Victoria, and Universidad Anahuac in Mexico.
