Skill Projects
Connects career goals to skills, learning, projects, and evidence.
Problem
Students pick up many concepts across classes, tutorials, and projects, but nothing connects what they learn to the career they are aiming for.
Target user
Students building toward a technical career who need to turn coursework into portfolio evidence.
Why it matters
Recruiters hire on evidence. Learning that is never connected to a project or proof is easy to lose.
Product decisions
- Model the whole chain (goal → skill → learning → project → evidence → portfolio) as connected data, not separate lists.
MVP scope
- Identify target careers
- Determine needed skills
- Track skill development
- Connect skills to projects, and coursework to practical application
- Store evidence of learning
Vision (not built yet)
- Help users build stronger portfolio projects based on the gaps in their evidence.
Data model
The domain is naturally relational: careers need skills, skills link to projects and learning, projects hold evidence.
