WiseNxt is the brand of The Economic Group (hereinafter, #The Group) for those Educaship services that are designed for school students and other people who would like to identify their profession to pursue.

CNMCyber Team (hereinafter, #We), which is a group of #The Group's volunteers, oversees the development on #The Group's side, as well as administers #The practice we envision and markets #Our offerings on behalf of #The Group.

Our offerings

For the purposes of this wikipage, our offerings refer to our signature work products that #We market. There are three of our offerings; they include (a) #WiseNxt Academy, (b) #EmployableU Camp, and (c) #AINurtz Career Day.

Each of our offerings is a combination of #The services we build. The #Comparisons of our offers section of this wikipage contains tables that compare our offerings.

#We are working on each of those products. In addition to our offerings, #We may promote other #Brands of #The Group such as #CNMCyber and #Opplet. We may also promote products of #Our Partners and #VIT to the extend that is beneficial to #The Students.

AINurtz Career Day

AINurtz Career Day is the shortened version of #EmployableU Camp and, therefore, the shortest product that #We are going to develop, administer, and market. #AINurtz Career Day is designed to be delivered in one day as a #Career day.
As a market exchangeable, #AINurtz Career Day belongs to the #AINurtz #Product line. The goal of #AINurtz Career Day is making sure that #The Students are aware of career development and job search generally and #Career-planning help, #Entry-level credentialing, #Job-related networking, #Vocational discovery, and #Work experience specifically. They shall also learn about their opportunities to get prepared and be successful on the job market.
Although #AINurtz Career Day can be lightly personalized through Q&A sessions, it falls short from one-on-one guidance that is available for participants of #WiseNxt Academy, volunteers of #CNMCyber, or customers of #Careerprise. Those participants of #AINurtz Career Day who are interested in fuller scopes can switch to #EmployableU Camp, #WiseNxt Academy, or #Careerprise products upon their graduation from #AINurtz Career Day.

EmployableU Camp

EmployableU Camp is the shortened version of #WiseNxt Academy that is designed to be delivered as a #Summer camp. Both the Camp and #WiseNxt Academy feature full-scope #WorldOpp Orientation and #EmployableU Concepts courses. However, the scope of #CNMCyber Bootcamps including their curriculum, job-alike practice, and guided entrance to the labour market is significantly reduced in comparison with #WiseNxt Academy.
As a market exchangeable, the Camp belongs to the #EmployableU #Product line. The Camp is designed to be delivered in 3 sessions at least and, therefore is still bigger than #AINurtz Career Day.
Two goals of the Camp is (a) preparing #The Students for career development and (b) making sure that they are more employable than before enrolling into the Camp. #We expect that graduates from the Camp should know how to identify their #Target occupations, choices for acquiring the needed #KSAs, and landing their jobs. Those participants of the Camp who are interested in a fuller scope can switch to #WiseNxt Academy while being enrolled in or after graduation from the Camp.

WiseNxt Academy

WiseNxt Academy is our flagship offering that delivers to #The Students the fullest scope of #The services we build. Among #Our offerings, #WiseNxt Academy is the most comprehensive market exchangeable. It represents the fullest scope of the first three stages of #The Pipeline.
As a market exchangeable, #WiseNxt Academy belongs to the #WiseNxt #Product line. #We may suggest that some of #The Students would be employable as a result of #WiseNxt Academy. However, providing #The Students with full-time professional employment is not #WiseNxt Academy's objective. The #Bridging the gaps section of this wikipage expresses the objectives of #WiseNxt Academy best.
Since #WiseNxt Academy is designed to be friendly to high-school students, it can be delivered as an #After-school program. #We expect that it would benefit our #Primary audience the most.

The services we build

For the purposes of this wikipage, the services we build refer to services behind #Our offerings. #We would love to provide #The Students with #Workplace sandboxes, which shall be similar to regular workplace, so #The Students can practice with #The practice we envision in order to explore various professions in order to find the best match and earn #Competency credentials.

#We use #DevOps to advance our services. Since they heavily rely on #Opplet, #The Students shall also get #Tech support.

Career-planning help

For the purposes of this wikipage, career-planning help refers to services of providing #The Students with:
  1. Knowledge about career development, recruitment, and job search, initially, via #EmployableU Concepts.
  2. Personalized feedback by #Our Mentors.
  3. Software tools to build their careers, as well as skills to use those tools.

Entry-level credentialing

For the purposes of this wikipage, credentialing refers to services of:
  1. Providing #The Students with opportunities to earn #Competency credentials.
  2. Making sure that #VIT issues #Competency credentials to #The Students who have earned them, as well as that #VIT maintains credential records publicly, so potential employers may verify them.

Job-related networking

For the purposes of this wikipage, job-related networking refers to our services of helping #The Students to network professionally. Besides contacts with #Our Mentors and #The Students' peers, #The Students are welcome to undertake #Event-driven projects and participate in #Professional groups. Altogether with #Performance records, #The Students should be able to build their own professional networks.

Minimal training

Neither #The Group nor #We are not training providers. With regards to job training, our goal is to connect #The Students with secondary education and/or vocational training providers.
At the same time, #We strive to provide #The Students with #Career-planning help, #Job-related networking, #Vocational discovery, and #Work experience. To enable #The Students to take full advantage of our services, #We offer minimal training.
Our introductory training reflects the #Learning sequence we use and based on #Course prototypes. The training scope is strictly limited to what #The Students need in order to graduate successfully from our programs.

Privacy

For the purposes of this wikipage, privacy refers to our services of protecting the privacy of #The Students. #CNMCyber doesn't collect any personally-identifiable data. Instead, each of #The Students is granted a fictitious identity within #CNMCyber. In addition, #CNMCyber doesn't require email addresses; everyone can register in #CBNCyber without email.
At the same time, #The Students normally want their names on #Competency credentials, so #The Students of the age of majority or their guardians may choose to provide their real names and so on to #The Group in order to officially establish the #Competency credentials.

Student support

For the purposes of this wikipage, student support refers to our services of helping #The Students to be successful academically and socially. Because not only students need to be supported technologically, #Tech support is a separate section on this wikipage.
  1. CNMCyber events
  2. CNMCyber.com
  3. To get one-on-one connection, #The Students shall be served with a sufficient number of #Our Mentors, including #Staffers on the ground. #Our Mentors may also provide #The Students with some on-the-job training when needed.

Vocational discovery

Based on #The practice we envision, recommendations of #Our Mentors, and personal survey results, #The Students shall be advised about their vocational aptitudes, career options, and occupational paths. #We plan to utilize artificial intelligence (AI), requirements for which shall be defined and implemented.

Work experience

For the purposes of this wikipage, work experience refers to both professional experience that #The Students are welcome to obtain and our to services of providing #The Students with it.
Graduates from both #EmployableU Camp and #WiseNxt Academy will obtain work experience, which many employers value over other #Competency credentials. The graduates may choose to hide their records. Otherwise, the work experience records will be posted publicly, so potential employers can verify them.

Competency credentials

#We believe that professional credentials are highly desired outcome for most of #The Students. Since #The practice we envision is the only source for those credentials, they are not available to graduates from #AINurtz Career Day. Our service of #Entry-level credentialing is designed to give those who are enrolled into #EmployableU Camp and #WiseNxt Academy opportunities to earn them.

Certificates

Graduation from any quintile of #CNMCyber Bootcamps grants each of #The Students one of #KSACerts. Graduates from #WiseNxt Academy will earn four certificates, including #CITPMA. Graduates from #EmployableU Camp may have up to three: KSA Certified Event Organizer, KSA Certified Website Developer, and KSA Certified Digital Operator.
These #KSACerts are not tailored to any distinct profession, but are useful through various professional specialties and #Occupations.
In addition to #KSACerts, graduates from #EmployableU Camp and #WiseNxt Academy gain valuable #Work experience, which may qualify them partially or fully for pursuing other trade certificates. For instance, one year of project management experience is required for the Project Management Professional (PMP) designation. Graduates from #WiseNxt Academy would have already had about half of that.

Performance records

By itself, #Work experience generates professional records. At #CNMCyber, this record is always documented and, if needed, can be proven.
While being enrolled in #The practice we envision, #The Students shall also participate in #Professional groups. Altogether with professionally-meaningful connections, that participation shall generate records of profession-related performance such as delivering a speech, serving on a board, writing an article, etc.

Recommendations

Each of graduates from #WiseNxt Academy will receive an official professional recommendation from #Our Mentors. Some of graduates from #EmployableU Camp may also get that credential.

Learning sequence we use

#Our offerings utilize the first three stages of #The Pipeline. These stages are designed to provide #The Students with introductory work experience, career options, and guided entrance, normally, as apprentices to the labor market.

WorldOpp Orientation

WorldOpp Orientation is a brief, no more than 2 hour long, course that is designed to introduce #The Students to #Our offerings, #The services we build, #Competency credentials, #Learning sequence we use, #The practice we envision, #What we already get, #What we can commit to, as well as #Student motivation. In other words, #The Students will overview what they can expect from #The Group and us, as well as what is expected from them while they are enrolled in #The Pipeline.
As a market exchangeable, the Orientation belongs to the #WorldOpp #Product line.

EmployableU Concepts

EmployableU Concepts is a lightweight, about 3-4 hour long, course that is designed to introduce #The Students to general concepts related to careers and career management, as well as employment, employability, self-employment, job markets, labor laws, occupations, professional credentials, recruitment, work characteristics, work arrangements, and workforce development.
As a market exchangeable, the Course belongs to the #EmployableU #Product line.

CNMCyber Bootcamps

CNMCyber Bootcamps combine #The practice we envision and formal transfer of knowledge that #The Students minimally need for that practice. The Bootcampts are composed of five quintiles, each of which represents formal curriculum and the practice that is designed to reinforce that curriculum.

Educaship Fellowship

Educaship Fellowship is the fourth stage of #The Pipeline. At the #CNMCyber Bootcamps stage prior to the Fellowship, #The Students shall identify their #Target occupation and plan its landing. The goal of the Fellowship is to land one's full-time meaningful, high-quality job.
During the Fellowship, #The Students obtain those #KSAs that the #Target occupation requires, most importantly, while starting working in that occupation, initially, entry-level part-time. The Fellowship combines professional education and #Apprenticeships in order to prepare #The Students to the fifth stage, Careerprise Employment.
As a market exchangeable, the Fellowship belongs to the #Educaship #Product line. Upon their graduation from the Fellowship, #The Students get support while transitioning to professional jobs. If #The Students choose to be self-employed, they receive assets and attitudes to become the ones.

The practice we envision

For the purposes of this wikipage, practice refers to CNMCyber practice, in which #The Students undertake efforts to produce and/or operate CNMCyber products. The practice that we envision combines experiential learning, on-the-job training, and introductory #Work experience.

This section includes #Agnostic nature, #Choice of practice, #Exposure to technology, #Imaginative emphasis, #Job-alike activities, #Non-profit purposes, #Practice sprints, and #Real-world tasks sub-sections.

The #Tentative practice roles section of this wikipage describes the participants' tentative roles. The #From study to practice section describes transition from passive learning to active practice.

Agnostic nature

Objectives of CNMCyber Bootcamps generally and #The practice we envision exceptionally are to introduce #The Students to the workplace and to help them to identify their #Target occupations. Within #The Pipeline, occupational education and training occur at the #Educaship Fellowship stage.
So, just few parts of #The practice we envision present single #Occupations. The overwhelming majority of the practices can be met in workplaces across various industries and professions.

Choice of practice

To start each of #Practice sprints, #The Students shall choose the deliverable they would like to practice with. To collect ideas and requirements, #The Students organize meetings of #Professional groups related to the chosen deliverable, interview its stakeholders, as well as identify other sources of data to conduct further research.

Exposure to technology

While being placed in the drivers' seats of modern technology, #The Students also start their professional experience and earn #Competency credentials. Equally importantly, that practice may reveal or, at least, suggest professional aspirations of #The Students. #We envision to use practice's results for their #Vocational discovery.

Imaginative emphasis

Our #Training experience suggests that few primary and secondary schools nurture entrepreneurs, innovators, leaders, and self-starters. Those school mostly feature "don't do anything we haven't told you to do" approaches. The problem was identified centuries ago. The following quotes may demonstrate the issue,
  • The child is the first artist. Out of the material around him he creates a world of his own. The prototypes of the forms which he devises exist in life, but it is the thing which he himself makes that interests him, not its original in nature. His play is his expression. [...] Imagination surrenders to the intellect; emotion gives place to knowledge. Gradually the material world shuts in about us until it becomes for us a hard, inert thing, and no longer a living, changing presence, instinct with infinite possibilities of experience and feeling. -- Carleton Noyes, 1907
  • You have to let yourself go to be creative. Children possess this quality but then seem to lose it as they are told, "it's not the done thing". Pablo Picasso summed it up well; "Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up". -- Ricky Gervais, 2011
To mitigate that problem, many components of #The practice we envision embed artistic, creative, imaginative, inventive, and visionary undertakings. Although #Cloud operations emphasize operations of what already exist rather than new creations, #We also use #Our DevOps to shape those operations as well.

Job-alike activities

#The practice we envision is job-alike. #The Students are to explore various #Occupations to find the best match. This practice can be compared to sampling on a marketplace, fitting rooms in clothing stores, and/or test drives in auto-dealerships. A prospective buyer is given a chance to try a thing before buying it.

Non-profit purposes

#The Students practice with non-profit endeavors only. Any value that those endeavors may produce must be available to the general public at no cost. In other words, the endeavors should benefit the public good and be offered free-of-charge. When #The Students are legally able to work commercially and if they would like to do so, they are welcome to switch to #Careerprise at any time. To be employed and paid, they would develop those services that are for sale on the market.

Practice sprints

While acting in #The practice we envision, #The Students deal with many various diverse pieces of practice rather than with one homogeneously constant performing.
To ensure that, the practice consists of multiple sprints. Because of #Choice of practice, #The Students choose what incremental deliverable they would like to practice with in a singular sprint.

Real-world tasks

As the core of #CNMCyber Bootcamps, #The Students are going to practice with real-world tasks in job simulation environments. A notable difference between real-world job and our practice is that #We welcome errors and mistakes. For that reason, practice tasks are designed to be non-sensitive and, therefore, risk tolerant.

From study to practice

Based on our #Training experience, many of #The Students have reported that transition from passive learning to #The practice we envision is the source of biggest challenges within #CNMCyber Bootcamps.

Two of our work products, #CNMCyber Welcome and #CNMCyber Onboarding shall provide #The Students during those transitions with opportunities to have their questions answered and possible issues resolved.

CNMCyber Onboarding

CNMCyber Onboarding is a bundle of our services designed to help #The Students start #The practice we envision. These services include:
  1. Periodic videoconferences for live interactions. Videoconference hosts demonstrate their sample work on available projects.
  2. CNMCyber Onboarding videos and CNMCyber.com Onboarding webpage with comment sections.
  3. CNMCyber Onboarding Space, which is a CNMCyber community. The demonstrations are to be recorded and shared as videos through this community.
Basically, #CNMCyber Onboarding shall help those of #The Students to whom #CNMCyber Welcome is no longer helpful.

CNMCyber Welcome

CNMCyber Welcome is a bundle of our services designed to help #The Students get to #CNMCyber Onboarding. These services include:
  1. Periodic videoconferences for live interactions.
  2. CNMCyber Welcome Video and CNMCyber.com Welcome webpage with comment sections.
  3. CNMCyber Welcome Space, which is a CNMCyber community.
Basically, #CNMCyber Welcome may help those who may be interested in #Our offerings to get graduated from #WorldOpp Orientation, #EmployableU Conceots, and lectures of Event Organizer Bootcamp. The last lecture of the bootcamp directs #The Students to #CNMCyber Onboarding where #The Students shall be served afterwards.

Comparisons of our offers

This section contains three comparisons of #Our offerings. They are (a) #Engagement estimates, (b) #Services vs offers, and (c) #Within the sequence.

Descriptive comparison

#WiseNxt Academy is our fullest-scope, the most comprehensive offering. Its backbone is #The practice we envision, in which #The Students:
A limited scope of #The practice we envision is also included in our other offering, #EmployableU Camp. On the other hand, #AINurtz Career Day is the simplest offering, which intents to serve as our primary outreach vehicle. The rule of thumb is that the more comprehensive offering is, the fewer participants it attracts.

Engagement estimates

One size doesn't fit all. Every CNMCyber product behind #Our offerings is not designed to engage every learner. Based on #Training experience, we estimate various levels of engagement.
#What students we target* #AINurtz Career Day #EmployableU Camp** #WiseNxt Academy
School-age students, ages 12-14 60% 30-45% 25%
#Primary audience 85% 55-70% 50%
School students, graduation class 55% 25-40% 20%
College students 40% 10-25% 5%
Young professionals, entry-level workforce 37% 7-22% 2%
Mid-career workforce 38% 8-23% 3%
Upper-career workforce, second career launchers 43% 13-28% 8%
Seasoned seniors 36% 6-21% 1%
* The numbers that the table presents cannot be universal. The college student and young professional rates include a significant portion of statistics from pre-war Ukraine. The school student and adult estimates are largely based on our experience in the United States.
** Flexibility of #EmployableU Camp's scope causes flexibility of its engagement estimates.

Job offers

For the purposes of this wikipage, job offers refer to the paid work that #VIT or other employers that are affiliated with #The Group will propose to #The Students while they are enrolled in #The Pipeline.

#We welcome job offers as a part of career development. If you are one of #The Students who can legally work and need to earn for your living immediately, #We encourage you to look for other opportunities. Although our services are designed to help you to land full-time professional employment, that endeavor normally takes time, possibly, years.

Pre-Apprenticeships

Apprenticeships

#The Students' successful completion of #CNMCyber Bootcamps shall automatically lead to an offer to continue with #Educaship Fellowship. Apprenticeship is the backbone feature of this fourth stage of #The Pipeline. Its participants normally start working at some portion of a professional rate and their rates grow as their #KSAs grow.
Through its #Educaship program, #The Group constantly looks for employers to accommodate the apprenticeships. Those #Students who choose to become system administrators, may conduct their apprenticeships on CNM Bureau Farm, CNM Campus Farm, and CNM Lab Farm.

Side work

For the purposes of this wikipage, side work refer to paid work that #VIT offers to #The Students as independent contractors. As soon as #The Students earn the KSA Certified Event Organizer credential, they receive an offer to execute the Careerprise contractor agreement.
Only people of the age of majority can be a party in that agreement. If #The Students cannot legally do so, they can possibly try to ask their legal guardians. In that case, the legal guardian may play a role of an independent contractor, while hiring a minor as a subcontractor.
Careerprise contractors may choose a project they would like to work on. Work on some of the projects require only skills to interview the customers; that is why #The Students' ability to organize meetings is vital.
The funded projects are listed on the Careerprise bizopp wikipage. That work is not designed as full-time professional employment. Both quantity of projects and their funding are limited. Nevertheless, #The Students may be benefited from paid part-time work while they are building their future careers.

Used terms

On this very wikipage, a few abbreviations and terms are commonly used.
