Technical Individual Contributors: Feedback on Online Learning Prototypes

WHAT WE'RE RESEARCHING

We're running a paid study on the future of online learning platforms tailored for technical skill development. Evaluating early concepts helps us understand what features actually support professional growth in complex roles. Your feedback will directly influence how these educational tools are structured and designed.

HOW IT WORKS

During a 40-minute remote video call, you will discuss your past experiences with online learning and technical upskilling. We will then ask you to share your screen and interact with early prototype concepts. You will provide live, candid feedback on the interface, content structure, and overall usability. The conversation will focus on identifying what works well and what could be improved in the learning experience.

WHO THIS IS FOR

We welcome individual contributors currently working in engineering, IT, data, or product management roles. You should have an interest in professional development and prior experience using online learning platforms to build technical skills. Ideal candidates are comfortable articulating their thought process while navigating new software interfaces.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Discuss your current approach to technical skill development and online education.

• Review and interact with early-stage prototype concepts for a learning platform.

• Provide live verbal feedback on usability, features, and overall design choices.

• Walk us through what you find valuable or frustrating in the concepts shown.

WHO SHOULD APPLY

• Current individual contributor in a technical field (engineering, IT, data, or product)

• Familiarity with using online platforms for professional development

• Comfortable sharing your screen and thinking aloud during a remote video session
