At Brait Academy, an initiative by Brait Consulting Limited, we are committed to democratizing education and providing young people from low-income neighborhoods with the skills they need to succeed in the tech industry. We focus on teaching web development, graphic design, photography & videography, artificial intelligence (AI), computer support, and more, empowering students with the knowledge and tools to build careers in high-demand fields.
Our goal is to help underprivileged youth who cannot afford traditional tertiary education gain meaningful skills that open doors to well-paying jobs, freelance opportunities, or even entrepreneurship. By equipping them with valuable tech skills, we aim to alleviate unemployment and give them a chance to improve their lives and contribute to their communities.
Hi, I’m Siloma Stephen, and I come from a small pastoralist village in Kenya. Growing up, I was fortunate to have a sponsor who supported me through high school. But when it came time for campus, I faced significant challenges due to a lack of school fees. While many of my peers from my village didn’t make it past primary or secondary school, I was one of the lucky few who managed to continue my education.
That’s why I created this platform to give back and make education accessible to those who need it most. I want to share the skills I’ve gained, not just with my village, but with young people from underprivileged communities everywhere. I started my own digital agency Brait Consulting Limited after teaching myself through free YouTube videos. I’ve failed many times along the way, but it’s those failures that have shaped me and inspired me to help others for free.
My mission is simple: to help create 1,000 successful businesses through training, and in turn, reduce the staggering rates of youth unemployment. To do this, I need to train over 100,000 young people. I firmly believe that everything can be taught and I want you to be part of this dream.
Do you believe in the power of education and second chances? If you do, join me in making this vision a reality.
At Brait Academy, we believe in the transformative power of community-driven learning. Our mission is to create an inclusive space where knowledge flows freely, and everyone has something valuable to offer. Whether you’re a seasoned professional with years of experience in your field, a passionate hobbyist eager to share your skills, or someone with unique life experiences that have shaped your expertise, your voice matters here.
We understand that learning doesn’t just happen in classrooms it happens everywhere, and it can come from anyone. This is why we invite people from all walks of life to contribute to our growing community as instructors. You don’t need formal teaching credentials or years of experience to make an impact. All you need is a passion for sharing what you know, an eagerness to help others grow, and a commitment to making knowledge accessible to anyone who seeks it.
