Millions of workers worldwide are not working at a desk. The industry is demanding. It is not uncommon for there to be insufficient time for introduction and training. Even if the training is available, linguistic difficulties stand in the way. All at the expense of worker happiness, productivity, and safety.

Germany-based how.fm is a firm formed in 2018 that targets a sector that has mostly been disregarded by technological innovation, focusing its efforts on blue-collar employees. Its products are geared for workers who do not sit at a desk all day, such as those in construction, manufacturing, and agriculture. Every day, the platform enables warehouse operators to onboard, upskill, and support their employees. According to the company, the off-the-job training it provides has reduced attrition by 5% throughout its client base. The company also says that the on-the-job training it provides has decreased ramp time by 15%, enhanced production quality by 30%, and resulted in 50% fewer interruptions.

Unacademy

Unacademy was founded in 2010 by Gaurav Munjal, a former Google employee. The company started as a YouTube channel where Munjal would upload videos of his lectures on various topics.

Online learning platforms were not widely used in India at the time. Unacademy, on the other hand, saw the opportunity and opted to take a chance on revamping the nation's learning method. The platform was developed with the goal of providing affordable and high-quality education to all Indians.

Unacademy is now India's largest learning platform, bringing together top educators for millions of students in need of improved educational quality. The Unacademy program is available not only to 10+2 students, but also to college aspirants who are preparing for competitive exams such as CAT, GATE, UPSC, and others. The learning platform is actually transforming the way people study in India, with over 35,000 hours of educational content. The platform makes quality education available to everyone, regardless of location or economic status. This is an uplifting story of how a group of dedicated people is transforming the face of education in India.
