Learning paths

A route to a role, not a pile of courses.

Every path starts from a diagnostic, sequences modules so nothing assumes what you have not met, and re-orders itself around the places you actually lose points.

Published paths

Each path names the outcome it is aiming at, not the hours it contains.

How a path is built

Why the order is not arbitrary

Five things that separate a sequenced path from a playlist.

01

Diagnostic first

A short baseline across reasoning, structure and domain tells the path where you actually are, not where your CV says you are.

02

Sequenced, not listed

Modules are ordered so each one assumes only what the previous ones taught. A catalogue leaves that ordering to you; a path does not.

03

Re-ordered as you go

Lose points on evidence quality and the next module targets evidence quality. The path follows the scores, not a fixed syllabus.

04

Override at any time

You can skip, reorder or take something off-path whenever you like. The recommendation is a default, never a gate.

05

Ends in a certificate

Completing a path issues a verifiable certificate that names the modules, the submissions and the scores behind it.

Your stage

The same path logic, four stages

A school path and a professional path are built the same way; only the cases and the stakes differ.

Class 8–12

School

Start with cases that make you decide rather than memorise, and your first moderated discussions.

Degree years

Undergraduate

Add business, product and data thinking on top of whatever your degree already covers.

Placement season

Postgraduate

Negotiation, strategy and discussion practice, scored the way interview panels score it.

On the job

Professional

Short courses and verifiable certificates that keep your profile moving as your role changes.

Questions

About paths

A course is one subject taught through five to twelve modules. A path is a sequence of courses and cases aimed at a role, ordered so nothing assumes something you have not met yet.
Yes, though we would talk you out of more than two. Paths are designed around a weekly rhythm, and three concurrent paths usually means three abandoned ones.
No. The order is a recommendation based on your diagnostic and your scores. You can jump ahead; the platform will tell you what a module assumes so you can judge.
Start from the closest one and override it — every path is editable, and the recommender adapts to what you actually take rather than what it originally suggested.
You can see every path and take the free modules inside them. Completing a path end to end means buying the paid courses in it; the certificate comes with them.

The baseline is free, and it is what turns a catalogue into a path aimed at where you want to end up.
