EverFi eyes international growth as it aims to tackle ‘dangerous collection of crises’ with new online courses

D.C.-based EverFi Inc. has a plan for 2021 — double down on mental health, social and emotional learning online courses at a time when the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic makes those subjects more important than ever. That follows a 2020 when the company grew its online learning platform for K-12 schools, colleges and employers to include more offerings centered on social justice. And it all comes as the pandemic is forcing big cuts in state and local funding for education — and EverFi is hoping to position itself to help fill that gap.
