A Learning Platform That Doubled Course Completion

A custom LMS rebuild that raised course completion rates from 34% to 68%.

The Challenge

The Problem

BrightPath's off-the-shelf LMS didn't support the cohort-based, project-driven course structure their programs relied on, forcing instructors into manual workarounds and giving students little visibility into their progress.

The Solution

What We Built

We built a custom learning platform tailored to BrightPath's cohort model, with structured project milestones, automated progress tracking, and instructor tools designed around how their courses actually run.

The Approach

How We Solved It

We embedded with BrightPath's instructional design team for two weeks to map how cohorts actually progressed through material, then designed a milestone-based data model before writing any code. The platform was delivered in three phases, with the highest-impact cohort features shipped first.

Key Features

  • Cohort-based course structure
  • Milestone and progress tracking
  • Instructor grading and feedback tools
  • Automated student progress notifications

Increase in student satisfaction scores
