Chalkstreet

ChalkStreet is a curated online learning marketplace that provides high-quality on-demand self-paced online courses to college students and young working professionals at affordable prices. More than 50% of the jobs in India today did not exist 20 years ago. Yet, we still have an education system whose teaching methodologies and curriculum remain largely unchanged for decades and does not address the problem of employability. To get access to quality formal education also means clearing various entrance exams and the entire semi-urban and rural population of the country does not have access to good quality coaching offline for the entrance exams. There is a dire need for an affordable solution that addresses these problems. At ChalkStreet, we address these problems by creating a content marketplace focused on the career development of college students and young working professionals. ChalkStreet sources the best instructors for courses and productizes the content by converting them into a self-paced course thereby making it affordable. We are bringing in a new breed of people with relevant expertise, who also understand the industry requirements better, into the profession of teaching. We achieve this by making it suitably attractive for them in terms of reaching a wide audience as well as monetary rewards. ChalkStreet also has an interactive platform where these courses are converted into engaging learning experiences for our learners, effectively replacing the more expensive and often inaccessible offline choices.
