PHASED EVOLUTION PLAN FOR JESUSSTRAIGHT EDUCATION PLATFORM

 

PHASE 1: ESTABLISH THE FOUNDATION (Faith-Based and Vocational Training)

1. Core Focus: Christian and Vocational Education

  • Christian Education: Provide resources to learn about the Word of God, spiritual authority, and healing in Jesus’ name. These courses will include both biblical teachings and practical applications for daily life.

  • Vocational Training: Offer practical skills in fields like dog training, marine animal training (SeaWorld), tech academies, counseling, and construction apprenticeships.

2. Educational Courses (Career and Ministry Preparation)

  • Offer a variety of courses with certifications in vocational fields such as driving (car and motorcycle), tech coding (Python, WordPress, VSC), and self-defense. This will allow users to learn valuable skills that can be applied outside the ministry.

  • Platform Template: Use the EduHub template (https://bubble.io/template/eduhub-1659405176511x212393889978122240) to structure courses, allow users to sign up for classes, track progress, and earn certifications.

3. Integration of Spiritual Growth and Practical Skills

  • Make learning both spiritual and practical by blending biblical teachings with real-world skills. For example, a course on healing could incorporate both spiritual practices and practical counseling skills, preparing learners to serve others holistically.

4. Free Learning Resources

  • Start with free platforms like FreeCodeCamp to teach tech skills, alongside white-label resources (e.g., OpenOffice) for document management, until the platform can expand into custom, self-hosted tools.

 

PHASE 2: ENGAGE USERS WITH A UNIQUE LEARNING EXPERIENCE

1. Attracting Youth Participation

  • Interactive Courses: Gamify the learning experience by awarding points or badges for completing courses, similar to Udemy. Users can level up in both spiritual growth and career training.

  • Rewards and Competitions: Host challenges and competitions where students earn rewards for mastering topics like Bible trivia or tech skills, motivating them to participate actively.

  • Field Trips and Practical Learning: Engage students with real-world opportunities such as field trips to Christian ministries, tech companies, or outreach programs.

2. Blending Spiritual and Vocational Outcomes

  • Provide a faith-driven career path where students can learn skills they need for ministry (e.g., outreach, counseling) while also gaining practical vocational skills to serve their communities.

  • Example Course: A course on driving and self-defense could be paired with spiritual guidance on community outreach and protection, teaching both life skills and ministry service.

3. Educational Pathways

  • Offer structured pathways for different types of learners:

    • Ministry Pathway: For those wanting to work in the church, including courses in spiritual authority, healing, and outreach.

    • Vocational Pathway: For those aiming to develop practical, career-oriented skills, including tech courses, animal training, and apprenticeships.

 

PHASE 3: SCALING UP THE EDUCATIONAL PLATFORM

1. Offering Full Courses and Programs

  • Expand the platform to include full-length courses and programs (similar to Udemy), where users can enroll in multiple courses across fields like counseling, ministry leadership, tech skills, and self-defense.

  • Implement subscription models where users gain access to exclusive content and certifications.

2. Charter School Approach

  • Create a charter school model where students can follow a structured curriculum focused on faith-based values and vocational education. Offer online classes and track progress toward certifications in various disciplines.

  • Christian Vocational School: Establish partnerships with other Christian academies or vocational programs like Charis College, offering deeper education in faith, counseling, and ministry.

3. Monetization and Partnerships

  • Monetize the platform through partnerships with educational institutions, churches, and businesses that align with JesusStraight’s mission. Provide vocational training that leads to job placement within ministries or faith-driven businesses.

  • Offer paid certification programs in ministry leadership, vocational skills (e.g., tech, animal training), and outreach.

 

PHASE 4: FULLY INTEGRATED EDUCATIONAL ECOSYSTEM

1. Platform Expansion

  • Expand the platform to include interactive tools such as video lessons, live webinars, and discussion forums for students to engage with instructors and peers.

  • Introduce an app to allow students to learn on the go, making the educational experience more accessible and engaging.

2. Tech-Driven Learning for Career Building

  • Develop advanced tech academies where users can take courses in web development, coding, and design, with a focus on no-code tools (e.g., Wix, WordPress) and traditional coding (e.g., Python, VSC).

  • Provide job-placement services for graduates of the tech programs, connecting them with Christian businesses or startups needing these skills.

3. Cloud-Based Collaboration and Document Management

  • Integrate cloud services where users can collaborate on projects, share documents, and present final projects. Use white-label solutions for Google Docs alternatives to provide document management within the faith-driven platform.

 

CONCLUSION

The JesusStraight educational platform will merge faith-based education with practical vocational training, using engaging tools like gamification, competitions, and real-world learning experiences to draw participants, especially youth. Starting with basic courses and free resources, the platform will grow to include full-scale vocational programs, tech academies, and charter school pathways, all while emphasizing Christian values.

This phased approach ensures that learners are not only gaining biblical knowledge but also building career skills that can help them serve their communities, making JesusStraight a comprehensive solution for spiritual and practical education.
