Q1. 2022. Idea validation
Initially, I wanted to design the platform in such a way that it comprehensively covered the needs of designers, as they go significantly beyond just taking a course.
Context of the problem
For four years, I taught at online schools such as WDI, UpwardSchool, and also developed educational materials for Yandex.Practicum. As a result, I noticed that only 2% of students gain employment after completing their course. I saw several reasons for this:
Lack of practical work experience
Underdeveloped skills of the students
The educational program of the course
Hypotheses
To validate the hypotheses, I launched surveys in the chats of alumni as well as in the design community.
The survey data motivated us to find supporting or refuting evidence. To do this, I initiated discussions in the professional communities I am a part of, and also surveyed HRs, team leads, and company directors where I had previously worked.
To be continued..
Elevating User Engagement by 30% and Improving Academic Performance by 25%
