 Allow users to become ‘Teachers’ or ‘Learners’ at anytime
 ‘Teachers’ grow their reputation and earn credits from successful
teachings
 The credit system can allow users to build a stream of income from
teaching
OMNI ASPIRES:
 To connect and empower individuals through education
 To proliferate knowledge and skills to a target audience that are finding
their feet
 To loosen the financial squeeze placed on students by providing a simple
means to teach, learn and earn outside of their courses

courses
 OMNI provides a platform to find tailored learning content
 Encourages and rewards teaching between students
 Possesses commercial potential through the credit system

7.  THEORETICAL ISSUES &
DEBATES
The shared economy is the most profound
theoretical debate regarding a service like OMNI
Uber and Deliveroo suffer frequent employee
dissatisfaction
E-learning has also suffered this with instructor
dissatisfaction from their pricing changes
OMNI branding aims to entice time-rich users
who are slightly more altruistic in their goals
OMNI’s user base sustainability will rely
massively on contributor satisfaction
