Welcome to Happy2Host EDU Africa

Welcome, and thank you for being here this early.

If you have found this page, you are among the first to hear it from us. Happy2Host is coming to Africa.

We have been a Google for Education partner for five years, with over 15 years in education behind us. In that time we have helped schools, colleges and universities across the UK get real value out of Google Workspace for Education and now Gemini AI. Not the long feature list. The day-to-day. Planning a lesson more quickly. Marking a class set in less time. Running the week with a little less friction, and more of the day for teaching and learning.

We have trained teachers, sat in staffrooms, and watched tools that once felt like a chore start to give time back. That is the work we are bringing to Africa.

Earlier this year, we hosted our first-ever Summit in Lagos, featuring Google for Education. For many of the teachers there, it was the first training of its kind they had ever had. For me, this is personal. I am part of the diaspora, and I have long wanted to come back home to Nigeria and do something lasting for education here, through technology. That is why we are launching Happy2Host EDU Africa.

We are starting in Nigeria

Then we will move across the continent as we grow. One country at a time, at a pace that lets us do it properly.

In October, the full Happy2Host EDU Africa website goes live. Hands on Google for Education and Gemini AI training, built for African schools, colleges and higher education. We are working in partnership with key stakeholders in Nigeria, because we want to create something that fits the context of the country. We will do the same in every country we grow into.

Until then, this page is the start. Every week we will share one practical tip for getting more out of Google Workspace and Gemini. The kind you can use the next day. No jargon. No long read. One thing worth doing.

We are glad you are here at the start. There is a lot to come.
