Microlearning Bytes

In my volunteer role at Rumie, a pioneering non-profit digital platform, I have the privilege of designing and developing impactful micro-learning modules known as "Bytes." These Bytes are more than just educational tools; they are gateways to free education and training for individuals around the globe, dismantling barriers to learning on an extensive array of topics.

Each Byte is crafted for maximum impact, requiring less than 10 minutes to complete. They are perfect for busy individuals seeking to absorb knowledge quickly and effectively. Rumie's mission is to foster lifelong learners—empowering young people to learn, grow, and flourish in their personal and professional lives.

To reach a broader audience, several Bytes have been translated into Persian for our partner stakeholders. No matter if learners are aiming to master a new skill, broaden their horizons, or boost their career prospects, Rumie Bytes stand ready to help them realize their dreams and aspirations.
