Onboarding and Preparation Guide

Complete the steps below before your first session. Prepare only the items that belong to your confirmed package and learning format.

Program entry path

Learners move through six steps in order so the system opens the correct access and the class keeps a coherent rhythm.

  1. Read the public surface. Understand the purpose, audience, structure, learning formats, and limits of the program.
  2. Create a free member account. Review the module path, participation packages, and introductory materials.
  3. Select the right package. Choose according to existing foundation, desired output, available time, and required support.
  4. Complete payment for a paid package. The system opens only the access connected to a confirmed transaction.
  5. Complete preparation. Check your profile, schedule, access, equipment, objective, and source materials.
  6. Begin in the correct class. Join the confirmed schedule, cohort, and support scope.

After successful payment, the learning area shows materials, schedules, and support included in the package. In-person classes, advanced mentoring, individual sessions, and project lanes appear only when the package or an admission decision permits them.

Before an online class

Access and equipment

  • Sign in with the account used for registration.
  • Confirm that the correct package, modules, schedule, and available materials appear.
  • Use a reliable computer or device, an updated browser, and a suitable internet connection.
  • Prepare headphones, a camera when required, a note-taking tool, and a dedicated folder for course materials.

Time and objective

  • Add core sessions, practice sessions, and feedback sessions to your calendar.
  • Reserve time after class to complete exercises and revise outputs.
  • Write three short answers: where you are now, which problem you are learning to address, and which output you want to create.
  • Read the course page and opening materials before the first session.

Enter the class ready to learn by doing, receive feedback, and revise. Your answers need not be perfect, but the first objective should be clear enough to begin.

Before an in-person class

An in-person class is a focused learning period, not a travel activity. Arrange travel only after the dates, location, duration, and place have been confirmed in writing.

Confirm logistics

  • Confirm whether the class lasts 3, 6, or 9 days and the full attendance period.
  • Confirm the location in Lac Duong, Da Lat, Lam Dong Province and the support contact channel.
  • Arrange your schedule for full participation; replacement sessions are not automatic.
  • Bring a computer, charger, current materials, and notes about the main obstacle.

Prepare source materials

  • A short description of your work, current stage, and problem to address.
  • A relevant draft or document, such as a landing page, product brief, business model, or system map.
  • A verifiable objective for the class: which problem to resolve, which output to create, or which stage to enter.

Each class has no more than 9 learners. Be ready to do real work, receive direct feedback, and revise your output. If you cannot reserve the full period or do not yet have a sufficiently clear problem, select a shorter class or continue online first.

Before an individual session

An individual session is for reviewing a specific problem, obstacle, product, or structure. It is not a general question session and does not replace the learner's work.

  • State one major problem or no more than three genuinely important questions.
  • Send relevant materials and a short description of the context, current state, requested review, and desired result.
  • Confirm the time, arrive promptly, use reliable equipment, and find a quiet space.
  • Do not perform other work during the session.
  • Afterward, record the main points and choose one to three next actions.

If you need only general direction and have no concrete source material, a cohort class is usually a better fit. An individual session is most valuable when preparation allows attention to stay on the exact obstacle that matters.
