Documented.

Global Recognition

Validated on the world stage.

Few grassroots programmes earn a place in UNESCO's global record of what works. FirstLeap, UMEED's Career Readiness Training Program, is one of them, recognised for turning potential into professional independence.

Featured in UNESCO LitBase

An effective international practice.

FirstLeap is catalogued in UNESCO’s LitBase, the global database of effective literacy and lifelong-learning practices. The feature recognises how a focused two-month course moves low-skilled women into proactive professionals, pairing functional literacy with inner self-worth and direct corporate career pathways.

“The first step for our learners towards a respectful and dignified life.”
