Learner & Context Research

1 Learner Ecosystem

1.1 Primary users

The learners who actively complete courses on the platform.

Emerging Educators – Local educators who regularly teach a class or group of learners but have limited or no formal pedagogical training. This includes contract teachers, para-teachers, and community teachers.

1.2 Secondary users

People who support, influence, or enable the learning experience rather than completing courses themselves. Their engagement is essential for adoption, implementation, and long-term sustainability.

NGO coordinators – Recruit, onboard, and support Emerging Educators.
School leaders and mentors – Principals, mentor teachers, and other school-based staff who facilitate or influence the implementation of new teaching practices.
NGO facilitators/trainers (if applicable) – Deliver training, coach educators, and may use UnitEd resources in workshops or onboarding.

1.3 Future learners (beyond the MVP)

Additional audiences who could benefit from the platform as UnitEd expands.

Examples: Learning Supporters (community volunteers), Experienced Educators, Parents and caregivers, Youth workers, Community development workers, Early childhood facilitators, International volunteers, Adult Learning Facilities & providers.
