The Ogun State Government has officially unveiled OgunLEARN, the Ogun Learning Enhancement and Academic Resource Network as a major step in its ongoing digital transformation of the education sector.
Speaking at the unveiling, the state government reaffirmed its commitment to education as the strongest foundation for sustainable development, stressing the need to move beyond traditional classroom methods and fully embrace innovation and technology.
OgunLEARN was described as a strategic investment aimed at promoting inclusive and quality education for every child in the state, regardless of background or location. The platform is designed to provide curriculum-aligned digital learning resources, support teachers, encourage self-paced learning, and foster creativity and critical thinking among learners.
The government noted that, as the Education Capital of Nigeria, Ogun State views OgunLEARN not merely as a digital platform but as a long-term commitment to preparing learners for the future.
The unveiling also highlighted Ogun State’s leadership in education reform through comprehensive digitalisation initiatives, continuous teacher training programmes, improved Education Management Information Systems (EMIS), school rehabilitation projects, upgraded science laboratories, and the modernisation of technical colleges.
In addition, the state outlined key education and skills development initiatives already in place, including the Ogun Skills Fund, OgunEduCASH, OgunSchoLAR, OgunREHAB, OgunTEACh, and OgunDiPER, all aimed at strengthening learning outcomes and human capital development.
The government further underscored the introduction of Artificial Intelligence education as a forward-looking investment in Ogun State’s socio-economic future, noting that the initiative is designed to equip learners with relevant skills to innovate locally and compete effectively on a global scale.
The launch of OgunLEARN marks a significant milestone in the state’s efforts to build a resilient, technology-driven education system and prepare learners for the demands of a rapidly evolving world.
