Once upon a time, Umuzi was an on-premises training provider. We focus on teaching high-value digital skills (including Python) to high-potential underemployed youth. We were based in JeppesTown, South Africa, and our premises were... cozy. When COVID hit us, we had to figure out how to keep supporting our learnings remotely.

Django basically saved our bacon.

We didn't just survive COVID, we scaled up. We are now supporting learners as far afield as Kenya and Nigeria and have attracted funding from the likes of Unicef.

This is a tale from the trenches, with a good helping of aspiration.
