Tenders are invited for Digital Platform Consultant Closing Date: 22 Jun 2026 Type: Consultancy TERMSOF REFERENCE Task: Comprehensive Digital Platform Organization: Aflatoun International Location: Remote Project Duration: 8 months Closing Date: 22nd June 2026 Proposed Start Date: 20th July 2026 ABOUT AFLATOUN Aflatoun International is a global non-profit organisation headquartered in Amsterdam, with a Global Programme Hub in Nairobi. Working through a network of nearly 400 civil society and government partners across 100 countries, Aflatouns Social and Financial Education (SFE), builds the agency, resilience, and protective behaviours of children and young people from early childhood through adolescence. Aflatouns impact has been independently verified through randomised controlled trials, tracer studies, and World Bank-partnered evaluations. Aflatoun has been recognized globally (Brookings, Harvard, HundrEd, Million Lives Club) for its high-impact, low-cost model, which has shown to be effective in changing behaviours of participants across the globe. Currently, the organisation is developing a Digital Learning Platform to serve as the primary digital environment through which its partners and teachers access training, curricula, eLearning courses, and collaborative resources. The platform will support Aflatouns mission by equipping those who deliver its SFE programmes with the tools and knowledge they need to do so effectively. Who the Platform Will Serve This platform is designed specifically for Aflatouns partners and teachers, the civil society organisations, government entities, and trained facilitators who deliver Aflatoun curricula on the ground. It is not a learner-facing platform for children or young people. Its primary users are: Partner organisation staff and programme managers from Aflatouns global network Certified Aflatoun facilitators and classroom teachers delivering SFE programmes Trainers of Trainers (ToT) who cascade capacity to facilitators within partner organisations Aflatoun International programme and regional staff who support partners The platform will enhance the capacity of these users to deliver Aflatoun curricula with fidelity and confidence, by providing centralised access to training, resources, and peer learning tools. Rationale for a Digital Learning Platform As Aflatoun International continues to scale across geographies, the management and delivery of partner-facing training and curriculum resources has become increasingly complex. A unified digital platform addresses the following needs: Centralising access to official Aflatoun curricula. Standardising facilitator and partner training delivery through hosted and recorded sessions Supporting self-paced learning via modern eLearning formats, enabling partners to build capacity at their own pace Integrating an existing AI tool that makes curriculum content more accessible and searchable Showcasing collaborative work and joint projects with partner organisations PLATFORM OVERVIEW The platform will be structured around four functional sections, accessible to authenticated users through a personalised home page and dashboard. Each section serves a distinct purpose within Aflatouns partner and facilitator support model. Training Hub and Curriculum Access: Hosted and recorded training sessions; structured access to Aflatoun curricula by programme type and age group, restricted to approved users eLearning Centre: Self-paced online courses supporting standard eLearning formats with certificaion and badge feature (H5P, SCORM, xAPI, video, and others) AI Learning Assistant: Embedded integration of Aflatouns existing web-based AI tool, enabling users to query curriculum and training content Collaboration Showcase: A showcase of joint projects, co-created resources, and collaborative outputs produced with partner organisations SECTION A: TRAINING HUB AND CURRICULUM ACCESS Overview The Training Hub is the central learning and resource section of the platform. It combines live and recorded training sessions with structured access to Aflatouns suite of international curricula. Access to this section and in particular to curriculum materials is restricted to approved users based on their role and organisational affiliation. Hosted and Recorded Training Sessions Live Training Sessions The platform shall support the hosting and delivery of live, virtual training sessions. These sessions will be used by Aflatoun International and its partners to train facilitators, conduct ToT workshops, and deliver programme orientation. Requirements include: Integration with a virtual classroom or webinar tool (e.g. Zoom, BigBlueButton, or equivalent) Calendar-based scheduling and user registration for upcoming sessions Facilitator controls: screen sharing, breakout rooms, polling, and in-session chat Automated notifications and reminders sent to registered participants Attendance tracking and session reporting accessible to administrators Recorded Session Library All training sessions shall be recordable and made available for later viewing within the platform. Recordings are stored on the platform itself and are not dependent on external links. Requirements include: Searchable and filterable library of recordings, organised by topic, programme type, target age group, and date User-level viewing history and progress tracking Supplementary materials and resources linked to each session Subtitle and transcript support to aid accessibility and multilingual use Aflatoun Curriculum Access Curriculum Structure Aflatouns curricula span multiple programme types, each designed for a specific age group and delivered by trained facilitators. Demographic-Based Access Control Curriculum materials shall only be accessible to users who have been approved for access based on their role and organisational context. This is a core compliance and safeguarding requirement. The system shall enforce the following: Role-based access control (RBAC) tied to verified user profile attributes, including role, partner organisation, and programme area Age-group gating, ensuring each curriculum type is only visible to users whose role corresponds to the intended delivery demographic Organisation-level permissions, allowing partner organisations to access only the curricula relevant to their approved and active programmes Administrator-controlled approval workflow for new user registrations, requiring sign-off before curriculum access is granted Full audit logging of all curriculum access events, exportable by administrators Periodic access review prompts to ensure permissions remain current and accurate All curriculum content must be protected by a mandatory authentication and authorisation layer enforced at the server level. No curriculum material including previews, descriptions, or attachments shall be accessible to unauthenticated or unapproved users. This requirement is non-negotiable given the safeguarding responsibilities associated with Aflatouns work with children and young people. SECTION B: eLEARNING CENTRE Overview The eLearning Centre provides a dedicated space for self-paced learning. It functions as a full-featured Learning Management System (LMS) module, capable of hosting a wide range of digital learning content formats. This section supports Aflatouns partners and facilitators in building their knowledge and skills at their own pace, complementing live training sessions and curriculum resources. Supported Content Formats The platform must natively support the following eLearning content standards and formats without requiring users to install additional software: H5P , Open-source interactive content quizzes, drag-and-drop activities, branching scenarios, interactive video SCORM 1.2 / 2004 , Industry-standard packaged courses with completion tracking and scoring xAPI, Advanced learning data tracking supporting offline and mobile learning experiences AICC , Legacy course compatibility standard for older eLearning content packages MP4 / Video , Hosted video content with progress tracking and chapter navigation PDF / Documents , Reference materials, manuals, guides, and supplementary reading Audio (MP3 / OGG) , Podcast-style content, guided reflections, and oral learning formats Embedded iFrames , Externally hosted interactive tools and content where licensing requires it LMS Functional Requirements Course catalogue with search functionality and filters by topic, programme type, language, and level Enrolment management supporting self-enrolment, administrator assignment, and prerequisite-gated access Learner dashboard showing enrolled courses, completion status, and earned certificates Automated certificate generation upon successful course completion Assessment engine supporting multiple choice, open-ended responses, and multimedia question types Course completion and progress data exportable by administrators for reporting purposes Multi-language interface (English, Dutch, Arabic and Spanish) and content support, reflecting Aflatouns multilingual partner network Mobile-responsive design ensuring full course functionality on smartphones and tablets SECTION C: AI LEARNING ASSISTANT (INTEGRATION) Integration Note The AI Learning Assistant described in this section is an existing tool developed by and for Aflatoun International, currently available in web-based format. The scope of work for this platform component is integration only. The platform developer will not build a new AI tool; they will embed the existing AI within the platform environment in a manner that provides a seamless user experience. Overview The platform will embed Aflatouns existing web-based AI Learning Assistant, enabling authenticated users to interact with it directly from within the platform.
