SKILL TRADE HUB: A HUB FOR LEARNING TECHNOLOGY SKILLS

Abstract

To address the growing demand for technical expertise in fields like web development and database management, this project introduces a comprehensive online learning platform tailored to the diverse needs of aspiring computer science professionals. The platform seeks to overcome the challenges posed by fragmented resources and the limited availability of hands-on learning opportunities. It provides a collection of carefully selected educational materials and interactive tools designed to bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and practical application. Through an in-depth analysis of existing literature and industry best practices, the platform is structured to deliver a dynamic learning experience that covers both frontend and backend development, databases, and object-relational mapping. Utilizing modern technologies such as HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, JavaScript, ASP.NET Core, and MySQL, the platform follows a Waterfall Model approach, comprising phases of requirements gathering, design, development, testing, and final implementation. Key features include user authentication, content management, interactive learning modules, discussion boards, feedback systems, responsive design, and an admin dashboard. By creating a unified hub for comprehensive computer science education, the platform aims to empower learners with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to excel in the rapidly evolving tech landscape.
