The problem
Universities and polytechnics grade on completely different scales, so a strong result at one cannot honestly be compared with a strong result at another — national ranking and cross-school recruiting were impossible.
What we built
One hundred-point score with the workings shown, subject-appropriate assessment (portfolio work for technology students, achievements for others), verified achievements, recruiter accounts and an opportunities board.
- One comparable score — Different grading scales converted onto a single scale.
- Student profiles — Students register, add results and build a record of achievements.
- Public leaderboard — National, by field, by institution and by department.
- Recruiter accounts — Employers apply, get approved, then search and shortlist.
- Opportunities — Employers post roles; students apply with a match rating.
- Administration — Ranking rounds, approvals, analytics and an audit trail.
