The platform seeks to tackle youth unemployment by cultivating skills in innovation and entrepreneurship through its programmes

Accelerate Global has launched its new e-learning platform, Aceducation, which is targeted at disadvantaged youths in Southeast Asia.  

"Aceducation is a platform that will birth the next generation of responsible leaders who are independent, self-sustainable, courageous, innovative, empathetic and most of all compassionate," Raudhah Nazran, founder and CEO of Accelerate Global, said in a statement. "It is an e-learning platform for all. One that will democratise education and revolutionise the education system on a whole new level."

The platform is said to include Accelerate Global's entrepreneurship, career and personal growth programmes. It also operates on a one-for-one model, where for each subscription fee paid, an underprivileged youth gets access for free. Users can pay either a monthly subscription fee of about US$7 or an annual fee of about US$68.

Since its founding in 2019, Accelerate Global has impacted over 7,000 youths across Southeast Asia and attracted the interest of 69 investors. According to the social enterprise, all of its programme graduates have either managed to start their own business or found employment. One of its goals is to forge more partnerships with corporations and multinational companies interested in helping to upskill underprivileged youth.
