Shortly after its launch in April 2025, the organisation initiated VoluntLearn 1.0, a capacity-building initiative designed to cultivate young professionals who contribute to institutional projects while developing practical competence in educational technology. Through this programme, eight (8) VoluntLearners were certified for EdTech Proficiency in January 2026, marking the first cohort of trained participants under the Charis professional development model.
To foster continuous dialogue on educational innovation, Charis EdSolutions established the Charis EdTech Talk series, a platform for conversations on technology and educational transformation. Between April 2025 and January 2026, the organisation successfully hosted seven (7) editions of Charis EdTech Talk, engaging educators, technologists, and emerging professionals in discussions on responsible digital transformation in education.
Charis EdSolutions also expanded its institutional engagements through strategic collaborations and capacity-building initiatives. In November 2025, the organisation partnered with the Department of Consumer and Home Economics, Ladoke Akintola University of Technology (LAUTECH) to organise the Media Empowerment Confab (MEC) 1.0, through which 19 participants were certified for Media Proficiency in February 2026.
The organisation also secured important strategic collaborations. In October 2025, Charis EdSolutions partnered with the UNESCO-IFCD UNIOSUN Project to design and deliver a Virtual Proficiency Certificate Course on “Digitising Yoruba Oral Arts (DYOA).” In November 2025, the organisation collaborated with Davak Consulting to develop a contextualised Learning Management System (LMS) aimed at supporting institutional digital transformation.
Beyond programme development, Charis EdSolutions has also contributed to broader institutional conversations on technology and governance in higher education. In January 2026, the organisation’s Team Lead served as a Resource Person at the Federal University Oye-Ekiti (FUOYE) Governing Council and Management Retreat, facilitating discussions on Building a Smart and Resilient Campus and contributing to conversations shaping the FUOYE 25-Year Strategic Plan (2026-2050).
Institutional consolidation continued in March 2026, when Charis EdSolutions secured a strategic partnership with Children-in-Science and Technology (CIST). During the same period, the organisation formally constituted its Board of Trustees and leadership structures, and ratified the Charis EdSolutions Institutional Blueprint, establishing the governance, ethical, and operational framework guiding its mission.
