Our Story

A Decade of Transforming African Education

Scholars Link was founded in 2014 by a collective of university professors, school administrators, and education policy specialists who saw a critical gap: institutions across Nigeria were hungry for transformation but lacked structured, evidence-based advisory support.

What began as a small research advisory practice in Lagos has grown into a nationally recognized consultancy, with engagements spanning K-12 schools, polytechnics, federal universities, and state education ministries across 36 states and 12 countries.

Our approach is unique because we understand education from the inside. Every consultant we deploy has worked within an academic institution — as a teacher, principal, academic director, or researcher — before advising on one.
