Quick answer

GeraLearn is an online learning platform available in Kenya offering short courses in software engineering, data, design, digital marketing, and CBC-aligned tutoring. Courses are priced in KSh, paid via M-Pesa, and certificate content maps to TVET Authority unit standards where relevant.

Regulation and accreditation

Higher education in Kenya is regulated by the Commission for University Education (CUE); TVET is regulated by the TVET Authority (TVETA). GeraLearn short courses are not a degree programme; they are supplementary skills training. Where appropriate, content references TVETA unit standards and Kenya National Qualifications Authority (KNQA) levels so learners can stack these alongside formal credentials. Personal data is handled under the Kenya Data Protection Act 2019 and ODPC registration.
