By providing Speedtest ® performance measurements for each region and almost every city in Madagascar through our Ookla for Good initiative, Onja gained the ability to make an informed decision about an important part of its mission. When it came to finding a location for Onja’s base, understanding how internet speed varied was a cornerstone of the decision-making process. They are intrinsically linked, contributing greatly to the sustainability of the model and a better future for Madagascar’s young people. Onja’s developers are not just remote workers and partner companies are not just clients. These exchanges are important because they create strong bonds between the developers and their team members. In addition to their work, which requires high-quality internet, developers have regular stand-ups and meetings with their remote team. Here too, reliable internet is essential to fulfill every aspect of their role. Once our students land great opportunities as developers, they work remotely from our site in Madagascar. By partnering with Ookla for Good™, Onja was able to compare connectivity across the country to select the location that would provide the best coverage and performance to support both training and employment opportunities.ĭuring training, students rely on good internet access to take online courses in addition to their classroom study, work on exciting open-source projects, engage in volunteering and online internships, and interact with experts and mentors from around the world for upskilling activities such as mock interviews and coding challenges. A reliable internet connection is essential for Onja’s mission: it plays a crucial role from the start of the training program right through to employment.
