Main Academy — a platform aimed at training students by international standards and requirements of leading IT companies. The solution successfully works on the PLATMA and helps everyone who wants to grow up in IT.
As many companies in Ukraine lack qualified personnel, the need to create a robust platform with advanced IT education became apparent. Moreover, many students need help obtaining practical and theoretical skills to meet IT companies’ national and international standards and the European e-CF competency model. Main Academy is solving these issues.
Together with PLATMA, the goal was to create an educational portal that would offer its users expertise, convenience, and reliability in one place.
The Challenge
Students without programming knowledge often buy classes and do not get the desired skills. As a result, they spend money, but their proficiency level remains the same. Therefore, the main challenge was to provide the users with a solution so they could reach the level of Junior Developer in a few months.
This solution became possible with PLATMA, a Low/No-code platform that offers ready-made products to cut on time and costs for the project.
Firstly, it was necessary to put all classes (QA automation, Data Scientist, Basic System Administrator, C#, QA Manual, Python Developer, Java, DevOps, Front-End, and much more) together in one portal. Furthermore, the classes should contain video and audio materials that can be updated. Secondly, students needed 24/7 access to the learning system. The PLATMA team created the perfect solution to make all these functions convenient.
The Solution
The professional team presented a functional and convenient educational website based on the latest design requirements. The portal, which backend works on PLATMA, contains all the data about the platform users. Utilizing low/no-code tools, the team developed and deployed secure data storage to give access to students’ information, class recordings, and certificates of completion.
Additionally, the portal implemented many technical modules and a multifunctional CMS (Content Management System) to facilitate moderation and updating.
The students also can chat with the teacher directly online on the website. This function enables quick and convenient communication platform users with questions and issues requiring fast and professional responses during the study.
The results
The final result for Main Academy is a fully functional educational website whose architecture was designed for a high load. This allows thousands of students to make simultaneous visits to the portal. In addition, the team of experts developed intelligent filters and a panel to facilitate students’ search for the necessary study course and teacher.
The website is convenient for teachers who can:
- add content
- edit courses
- view students’ results.
At the same time, students can view all the necessary information regarding study course completion and payment status.
