Something built, by a team, with roles
A Project is a piece of work with an outcome and a group of people who made it — a science fair entry, a research build, a client deliverable, a hackathon team. It is the category that shows what somebody can do when nobody is marking each step.
A Project is judged on what got built. A Course is judged on what got answered correctly.
What a project is
A Hub creates a Project with a name, a tagline, the stack or tools it uses, and a status — recruiting, active, or completed.
Open roles are the positions on the team, each carrying the skills that role needs. Somebody joining takes a role rather than joining generically, so the record says what they actually did on it.
Work happens in the Project's Room, where tasks are set and approved, and files and links are shared.
What a role means here
A position on the team — "Builder", "Researcher", "Designer" — with the skills that position needs. Two people on the same Project can come away with entirely different skill records, which is the point.
How one runs
- 01
A Hub creates it
Name, tagline, stack, and the open roles with their skills.
- 02
The team forms
People apply to a role or are invited; capacity per role controls the size of the team.
- 03
The work happens
Tasks in the Room, approved as they land, with files and links attached.
- 04
It completes
The Project is marked completed and every member's seat with it.
What it puts on your record
The project and your role on it
On the resume under Projects, with the Hub, the role held and the dates.
Skills from your role
The skills that role carried, evidenced by the tasks approved against them.
Approved work builds confidence
A task approved but not marked counts as evidence that work was done, without pretending it was a perfect score.
Who can create one: Any Hub. Schools use Projects for science fairs and group work; colleges for research and capstones; businesses for internal builds and client work.
What all four share
Every category has roles
A posting is not a flat list of people. Roles inside it say what each person does and which skills that carries, so two people in the same Course, Job, Project or Event can come away with different records.
Every category gets a Room
Where the work actually happens: tasks, tests, attendance logs, files and conversation. Nothing reaches somebody's record without passing through a Room first.
Every category produces verified evidence
A mark exists because a named person at a named Hub entered it on a date. That is the difference between a HUBCV record and a CV somebody typed.
Every category is free to run
Posting, Rooms, marking and skill records cost a Hub nothing. Members pay from ₹222 per subject — one payment for the whole class — and 70% of it goes to the admin keeping their skills updated.
Questions
How is a Project different from a Course assignment?
An assignment is marked inside a Course. A Project is its own thing with its own team, roles and record, and can span several Courses or none.
Do all team members get the same skills?
No. You get the skills of the role you held, evidenced by the work approved against you.
Can a Project have no Hub?
It can be self-reported through the resume builder, but it is labelled self-reported. A Hub-run Project is verified evidence; your own account of one is not.
The other three
Jobs
A Job says somebody trusted you to do the work. A Course says you were taught it.
Courses
A Course is the only category where the same people meet repeatedly and are graded each time. That repetition is what makes mastery measurable.
Events
An Event is a point in time. The other three are periods you spend in something.
Running projects on HUBCV is free.
