Our solution team at Key2Enable operates as a Limited Company (Ltd). As a limited company, Key2Enable is a distinct legal entity that is registered with the appropriate government authorities, allowing us to conduct business operations independently.
Key2Enable was established with the purpose of developing and deploying innovative assistive technology solutions to address the challenges faced by individuals with disabilities and learning differences in accessing quality education and digital resources. As a limited company, we have the flexibility and autonomy to manage our operations, finances, and strategic decisions in alignment with our mission and objectives.
Key2enable addresses the critical problem of limited accessibility to quality education and digital resources faced by individuals with disabilities and learning differences. Globally, an estimated 15% of the world's population lives with some form of disability, encountering significant barriers to educational and employment opportunities (World Bank). This issue is exacerbated by statistics such as the status dropout rate of approximately 5.3% among individuals aged 16 to 24 (National Center for Education Statistics), highlighting the challenges faced by students with disabilities in persisting through traditional educational pathways.
The impact of this problem is profound both locally and globally. In communities where Key2enable operates, as well as on a global scale, millions of individuals are affected by limited access to inclusive educational environments and assistive technology solutions. Students with disabilities are disproportionately affected by academic underachievement and dropout rates compared to their peers without disabilities, emphasizing the urgent need for innovative solutions to support their learning needs.
Several factors contribute to this issue, including the lack of inclusive learning environments and educational resources tailored to diverse needs. Traditional classroom methods often fail to accommodate different learning styles and preferences, leading to disengagement and limited educational outcomes for students with disabilities.
To address these challenges comprehensively, Key2enable is integrating cutting-edge AI technology into its solutions. By making the use of Generative AI, Key2enable aims to enhance the functionality and adaptability of its assistive technologies. Our plan to integrate generative AI into our Inclusive LMS ‘EnableX’ can enable personalized learning experiences based on the learning preferences unique to each student as well as their learning styles.
