UpBrainery software platform plans to catch students at these earlier stages and expose them to content and materials that will allow them to discover their interests and aptitude. Research shows that these students will then be better prepared for the jobs of tomorrow with early exposure and guided pathways.
65% of students enter college without a clear plan. College debt is at an all time high and 70% of graduates wish they had pursued a different degree. 1: 500 college counselor to students ratio also makes it hard to receive guidance. The reason for this problem lies within the crucial upper elementary and middle school time when it takes an extreme effort for parents to expose their kids to unique experiences and a huge lack of resources and guidance.
During covid, we used a unique methodology of testing out our product by running beta with Parents, Community Partners. Covid opened up a new opportunity of working with organizations that want to offer outreach services in their communities and it allows us to reach many more students faster. Our traction includes Beta with The Houston Rockets, Girls Inc , Girl Scouts and Whataburger. We are launching with Nasdaq in Fall 2021 and providing a series of courses which allows a high school student to gain Nasdaq SmartBadge and complete the Financial Literacy pathway.
