Our impact so far
What RookiGuru has delivered, in honest numbers
RookiGuru is a young nonprofit. Here is what we've done so far, with every number labelled by where it comes from. We don't round up, and we say what we haven't measured yet.
Programmes
Live programmes with partners
Alongside self-paced courses, we've run two programmes directly with partner organisations.
Alamb pilot
Our first pilot, supported by Alamb staff and two volunteers in Bangalore. Thirty-five learners were assessed and twenty-two met the standard. Certificates were issued on 15 May 2024.
A small, early pilot rather than a large programme. We share the actual numbers.
Agentic AI series with Vibha
A four-part live series on agentic AI with Vibha, an education nonprofit working at scale with children across India.
Vibha Global Organization is a separate organisation from Vibha Shah, RookiGuru's Founder and CEO. About our leadership.
Partners
Organisations we work with
Each partner brings RookiGuru's free learning to the young people it already serves. None of them pays us, and we ask none of them for funding.
The impact we care about most happens in classrooms like these, run with partners such as Vibha. Read how RookiGuru works to see the model behind this impact.
Being clear
