Leveraging tech to make critical 21st-century skills accessible to under-served children in India.
About us
The Apprentice Project (TAP) is a for-impact organization determined to transform Government/low-income schools by offering holistic development of all children. TAP empowers students with social and emotional skills via digital modules in Financial Skills, Arts and STEM. These skills are critical to finding success and thriving in the 21st Century. THE PROBLEM 1 out of 3 children who drop out of school do not find education necessary. Of those who do graduate 47% of them are unemployable as they lack essential skills. THE SOLUTION TAP has built an Ed-Tech solution for school students from low-income families in India. We use TAP Buddy, a WhatsApp chatbot, powered by a natural language processor and AI-based technology with gamified behavioural nudges to deliver specialised courses that develop critical skills. THE TEAM TAP aims to empower children from low-income schools to be leaders of today and tomorrow. The TAP core team (Co-founders and Leadership) comprises alumni from Harvard University, the Indian Institute of Management, and Teach for India. The TAP Leadership team believes that all children irrespective of their background should get the skills and resources to realize who they are and achieve what they want to do. TAP is supported by Harvard University, IIM Bangalore, Nudge Foundation, Capgemini, Schlumberger, and others. In 2022-23 TAP impacted 12,000+ children across India through the online model.

This impactful event brought together changemakers and innovators from across the education ecosystem to highlight the crucial role of budget private schools (serving 75% of India’s children) in redefining equitable and quality education. Highlights included the launch of NISA’s ambitious 100 Model Schools project, and a vibrant exchange of innovative ideas across infrastructure, organizational processes, financial accessibility, and holistic student development.

💡 The future of education is here, and it's powered by Personalised Adaptive Learning (PAL)! As the education landscape evolves, PAL is emerging as a transformative approach to meet the diverse learning needs of every student, leveraging the potential of AI and ML. At TAP, we are deeply committed to advancing PAL to create tailored learning journeys that empower every child to thrive. Recently, we had the privilege of participating in the PAL Ecosystem Workshop organized by Dalberg, where we joined a cohort of visionary leaders and changemakers shaping the future of education. The workshop offered an incredible platform to exchange ideas on: ✔️ Implementation best practices for scaling PAL effectively ✔️ Evidence-building to showcase the impact of PAL on learning outcomes ✔️ Strategies for funding and policy support to accelerate adoption As part of this collective, TAP is excited to drive innovation in education, ensuring that 21st-century skills are at the core of this revolution. Together with market leaders and influencers, we aim to create a future where every learner receives the personalized attention they need to succeed. Shoutout to Srinivasan Krishnamachary, Prashant Kumar and Monika Biswas for representing the TAP vision on this platform. #TAPforimpact #theapprenticeproject #nonprofit #21stcenturyskills #tech #education
