Question 2

What is Hands-on Mentor?

Question 3

How does Hands-on Mentor work ?

Accepted Answer

Hands-on Mentor is a project-based learning platform that helps you build real portfolio projects with mentor support instead of just watching videos.
Here’s how it works:
 • You start by choosing a course or module and learn the essentials (like Excel, Python, analytics, AI, communication) through short, on‑demand video lessons you can watch anytime.
 • You immediately apply what you learn with hands‑on projects using real‑world style data, so you produce concrete portfolio pieces instead of only “completing a course.”
 • You can join live mentor workshops in areas like Data Skills, Strategy & Finance, AI & Automation, and Communication & Leadership to ask questions, debug your work, and get direct feedback.
 • When you need deeper help, you can book private mentorship and services such as career coaching, custom data training, dashboard and automation work, or startup and MVP consulting.
 • You can try the platform through free live events like the Future Skills Kickstart, and then continue with a plan (Core, Master or Maestro) depending on how much live support and 1‑on‑1 time you want.
