Ostathi Jordan: A Microsoft-Backed Revolution in Online Learning and Professional Training

Ostathi Jordan: A Microsoft-Backed Revolution in Online Learning and Professional Training AMMAN— Ostathi, a new digital marketplace for online tutoring and professional training, has officially launched in Jordan with support from Microsoft's Founders Hub. Developed by UniHouse, a global educational consultancy based in the UK, Ostathi delivers an innovative platform for learners, professionals, and educators—designed specifically to meet the evolving needs of Jordan's education and job market. Already planning regional expansion into Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Morocco, Iraq, and Turkey, Ostathi is positioned to become a key player in the Middle East's edtech transformation. What Is Ostathi?

From academic support to skill development, it serves as a one-stop destination for personalized, flexible learning.
