Problem
More than 144 million mothers in Latin America have at most a secondary education, often because traditional education systems were never designed for adults with work, family, and caregiving responsibilities. Rigid schedules, unaffordable costs, and content aimed at children and youth create barriers that keep women from resuming their studies and improving their economic prospects.
Solution
Brikap provides a flexible educational pathway for women who left the traditional school system, enabling them to retake their studies, learn effectively, and access better economic opportunities. The platform offers free, mobile-accessible courses designed for adults with work and family responsibilities, allowing them to learn at their own pace from their phones. Brikap's methodology focuses on three pillars: access to education, effectiveness of learning, and economic opportunity, combining practical skill development with pathways to employment. The company also partners with businesses to co-create training programs that match specific talent needs, connecting program graduates directly with companies seeking their newly developed skills.
Target Audience
The primary audience is women in Latin America who dropped out of the traditional school system and now seek to resume their education and improve their income. Secondary customers are companies that need trained talent and partner with Brikap to co-develop customized training-to-employment programs.
