Company mission
To help children everywhere build a strong foundation for academic success and a lifelong love of learning.
Our take
Age of Learning creates and distributes digital educational material to schools, educators, and families. The company's programs have been used worldwide to educate millions of children through a range of stories and games, many of which feature its main character ABCmouse.
As with many trends, the move to digitize education was accelerated by the global pandemic, with the way in which children are taught reshaped by at-home classes and remote learning. Age of Learning has capitalized on the eagerness of parents and schools to continue embracing new technologies, launching its Personalized Mastery Learning Ecosystem for schools, which enables teachers, families, and administrators to focus on the individual learning needs of students, and accelerate literacy and maths skills through technology and learning science.
Age of Learning has recently raised significant funds towards global expansion, in order to bring its content to more children worldwide. Its flagship product, ABCmouse Early Learning Academy, is the leading digital education brand for young children in the US, and the company is looking to add to its ever-growing range of educational products.
