The Institute of Product Leadership aimed to enhance the learning experience of product management students by creating an online platform that connects them with experienced mentors. This platform would facilitate skill development and provide guidance, ensuring students have access to the expertise they need to succeed in their careers. Codewave was engaged to design and develop this comprehensive mentorship platform, which included functionalities for mentor search, appointment booking, and payment processing, along with a supportive browser extension.
Product management students often require guidance from experienced professionals to navigate their learning paths and develop necessary skills. However, connecting with mentors can be challenging without a structured platform. The Institute of Product Leadership needed a solution that would allow students to search for mentors based on their specializations, book appointments, and process payments easily. Additionally, a browser extension was necessary to recommend mentors based on topics students were researching online, ensuring timely access to support and expertise.
Codewave developed a comprehensive web application tailored for product management students, featuring the following key components:
Mentor Search Functionality: The platform allows students to search for mentors by specialization, enabling them to find the right guidance based on their specific interests and career goals.
Seamless Appointment Booking: Students can book appointments with mentors directly through the platform, streamlining the process and ensuring ease of access to mentoring sessions.
Integrated Payment Gateway: A secure payment gateway was implemented to facilitate easy payment for mentoring sessions, enhancing the overall user experience and making financial transactions straightforward.
Chrome Browser Extension: To further support students, Codewave developed a Chrome extension that recommends relevant mentors as students research specific topics online. This feature provides timely suggestions, allowing students to connect with mentors exactly when they need assistance.
User-Centric UX/UI Design: The platform was designed with a focus on user experience, ensuring intuitive navigation and accessibility for both students and mentors.
Enhanced Mentorship Opportunities: The platform created a structured environment for students to connect with mentors, fostering professional growth and skill development.
Improved Accessibility: The ability to search for and book appointments with mentors made it easier for students to access the guidance they needed, leading to better learning outcomes.
Convenient Payment Processing: The integration of a payment gateway simplified financial transactions, allowing students to focus on their mentoring sessions without worrying about payment issues.
Timely Recommendations: The browser extension provided students with mentor suggestions relevant to their research topics, enhancing their ability to seek help and advice at critical moments.
Support for Professional Development: By empowering students with access to mentors and tailored guidance, the platform contributed to their overall professional growth and readiness for the job market.
Through the development of the Mentor Connect platform, Codewave successfully created a valuable resource for product management students, facilitating connections with mentors and supporting their educational and career aspirations.
