01 — Trade course library

The clipboard by the door.

Your program already has a shape. The library fits it: trade courses lined up in the order you actually teach them, and hands-on labs your students work checkpoint by checkpoint at the bench.

Instructors pick the modules. Students see the same list on day one and on the last day — no scavenger hunt, no twelve open tabs.

Student hands working with tools at a training bench — Hands-on labs, mid-checkpoint.

On the wall

Seat licensing Seats for your program, in bundles sized to your cohort.

Everything a program needs, on one board.

The instructor view: one line per cohort, week by week.

02 — Instructor dashboards

One screen, before the bell.

Nobody wants to learn a platform at 7:40 in the morning. The instructor view is one screen: who's moving, who's parked, who needs a hand on the next lab.

01 Roster, attendance and where each student stopped last session.
02 Lab checkpoints as students sign them off at the bench.
03 Certification progress, so you know when to schedule the exam.

An instructor checking a laptop in a shop office — Morning look at the board.

03 — Certification exams

Star stickers, for grown-ups.

Certification exams sit in the same place as the coursework, so students aren't handed off to a different system on the day that matters most. Practice first, then the exam — and a stack of slips at the end of the term that says the work got finished.

Lab 1 — signed off

Practice exam — sat

Lab 2 — signed off

Certification exam — sat

What a cohort leaves with

Every slip is a checkpoint your students can point at — and an instructor can check without opening a spreadsheet. Exams get scheduled when the dashboard says the class is ready, not when the calendar says so.

Yes, the stickers are the point.

04 — Employer matching

The bulletin board end of the room.

Shops that are hiring and students who are ready end up in the same place. Employer matching puts your completers in front of the people doing the hiring — not in a résumé pile on somebody's desk.

It works the other way too: employers tell us what the bench actually needs, and your program knows what to teach next.

Hiring

Shop floor. Bring your own boots.

Completers with checkpoint slips and a passed exam behind them.
Introductions made by the instructors who know who shows up early.
Shops see the whole cohort — not just the loudest résumé.

Pinned by the shop door, like everything else.
