Career Navig8r Platform Update #1
Hi, just a quick update for everyone (thanks to those who have already signed up 😊)
We were aiming to go live with the full mentoring platform in December. However, the people working on the site development are based in Ukraine. That was a deliberate choice we made when development first started.
Since things have become trickier with Russia now targeting power supplies, we again made the conscious decision to leave the project with them.
They are working in difficult circumstances, including having to work around scheduled blackouts.
We’re going to stick with them, and if that means a delay to the site, we think that’s better than whipping the work away from them when things are already difficult enough.
They’ve done great work so far. We’re immensely happy with the way the platform is developing and we know it’s going to make a difference to anyone looking to find or become a mentor!
A big thank you to CollabGear for all of their fantastic work so far.
Stay safe, we’re not going anywhere. Your work so far is absolutely top-drawer & we can’t wait to see the finished site.
