Proof of Work
About 174 wordsLess than 1 minute
Proof of Work begins after the selected Builder or Researcher Deep Dive. It is the reviewable project layer of the full Academy.
In development for Cohort 1 · January 2027
The September–October 2026 Foundation Pilot ends after Week 4. The full Cohort 1 programme continues through the selected Deep Dive track and these W7–W8 milestones.
| Stage | Purpose | Points |
|---|---|---|
| W7 · Scope + MVP / V1 | Define a realistic PoW while producing the smallest meaningful version | 200 |
| W8 · Refine + Final PoW | Improve, validate and ship or publish a reviewable final artefact | 200 |
By the end of W7, the PoW scope should be stable enough for W8 to focus on refinement rather than another major rescope. Small changes from testing, evidence or feedback remain part of the normal refinement process.
The exact task requirements will be authored by the Education team. The reviewer model remains completion-based: work is completed or returned for revision, without fractional rubric scores.
