Coordinators across 3 countries
Duration
15 months
TME Education is an initiative of Transfer Multisort Elektronik (TME) that promotes electronics and technology education in regions with limited access to quality STEM training. Operating since 2016, the program works with schools and education centres in Tanzania, Uganda, and Ghana; equipping labs, training teachers, and running the Community Changemakers program where students build solutions for local challenges using TME's Arduino-based programming kits.
The Challenge
As TME Education expanded across Tanzania (including its partnership with St Maximilian Education Centre) and into Uganda and Ghana, managing lab equipment delivery schedules, teacher training cohorts, student project timelines, and program ambassador coordination became difficult to track centrally. Reporting back to TME's global team on program outcomes required significant manual effort.
The Solution
TME Education adopted TaskMate to coordinate their school partnerships, equipment distribution, teacher training sessions, and Community Changemakers project cycles; giving country coordinators and the global team shared visibility.
Implementation
- Created country workspaces for Tanzania, Uganda, and Ghana programs
- Built equipment delivery and lab setup tracking workflows
- Implemented teacher training scheduling and certification tracking
- Established Community Changemakers project milestone tracking
- Set up consolidated reporting dashboards for the global TME team
The Results
Schools Equipped
Teachers Trained
Student Projects Completed
Equipment Tracking Time
"Running an education program across three countries with different school calendars and logistics realities is genuinely complex. TaskMate made it manageable; our coordinators stay aligned, our labs get set up on time, and we can show TME exactly what is happening on the ground."
Key Taskmate Features Used
- Multi-country school partnership coordination
- Lab equipment delivery and setup tracking
- Teacher training and certification workflows
- Community Changemakers project milestone tracking
- Global program reporting dashboards
Looking Forward
TME Education is expanding to additional countries in Africa and exploring a new student innovation competition. TaskMate will coordinate applications, regional heats, and project judging across the continent.
