What you’ll learn
Turn a first attempt into stronger work through expert feedback, reflection and focused learning.
Why begin with a challenge
Many people learn better when they can see what a concept is for. A realistic business problem creates that context. Instead of studying every feature of a tool before doing anything, you encounter a question, try an approach, discover a gap, and seek the knowledge needed to move forward.
Experience: do the work
You examine a brief, work with information, test ideas, and create an output. In a customer churn mission, that might mean cleaning customer records, identifying possible drivers, and recommending an intervention. You make choices and see their consequences.
Relationships: learn with others
Expert feedback, peer discussion, or a structured review can challenge your assumptions. Why did you group these customers together? What might bias your conclusion? How would you present the findings to a nontechnical stakeholder? The goal is not simply approval; it is improvement.
Focused learning: fill the gap
Once a problem exposes a knowledge gap, a short lesson or resource becomes immediately useful. You may need a concept in statistics, a spreadsheet technique, or a better way to communicate uncertainty. Learn it, apply it, and return to the project.
What 70–20–10 means here
Innovatech takes inspiration from the widely discussed 70–20–10 development framework: experience, learning with others, and formal learning. These numbers are a design inspiration, not a measurement of each learner’s time or a guarantee of outcomes. The practical loop is challenge → attempt → feedback → focused learning → improvement → evidence.
Finish with something tangible
The result is not only a completed lesson. It is a piece of work you can explain, refine, and—where expert validation is available—include in your Skills Passport.
