## Platform

web

## Users

Young people who are learning or already possess a practical skill and want to turn it into paid work, customers, or self-created opportunities. Registration is open to all young people and is not limited to RVIBS students or graduates.

## Product Purpose

Promote a practical skills-to-income learning session and convert interested visitors into registered participants. Success means a visitor quickly understands that the training connects skills with earning opportunities and completes the registration form.

## Positioning

The session goes beyond teaching a skill: it teaches participants how to package, price, promote, and earn from skills they already have, including using AI and a phone as practical business tools.

## Operating Context

Visitors primarily encounter a public, mobile-friendly landing page, review the workshop outcomes, and register on the same page.

## Capabilities and Constraints

- Preserve the existing PHP and MySQL registration flow and the `siyb` database destination.
- Registration captures first name, last name, telephone number, county, and email address.
- Telephone numbers remain the duplicate-registration identifier unless the backend is explicitly changed later.
- Do not display an event date, time, or venue.
- Preserve clear validation, success, duplicate-registration, and failure feedback.

## Brand Commitments

- Organizer: Africa Tech Space Tech Academy, the Innovation Wing of Rift Valley Institute of Business Studies.
- Primary message: “Don’t just learn a skill. Learn how to earn from it.”
- Supporting message: “Learn it. Sell it. Earn from it.”
- Voice is energetic, direct, encouraging, practical, and youth-focused.
- The visual direction is inspired by Gumroad’s bold, playful, creator-first character without copying its brand assets.
- Main colours are `#57B4E4` and `#061634`.

## Evidence on Hand

- User-supplied workshop messaging and learning outcomes.
- Existing organization logo assets: `logo.png` and `logorvibs.png`.
- Existing registration implementation in `index.php` and database configuration in `config.php`.
- No testimonials, attendance figures, accreditation claims, event logistics, or other external proof were supplied; future work must not fabricate them.

## Product Principles

- Make the path from skill to income concrete and immediately understandable.
- Keep registration visible, simple, and trustworthy on every device.
- Use energetic language and interaction to build momentum without obscuring the message.
- Treat mobile visitors as first-class participants.
- Never invent event details or unsupported outcomes.

## Accessibility & Inclusion

Use semantic, keyboard-accessible controls, visible focus states, readable contrast, clear validation messages, and motion that respects reduced-motion preferences.
