STTI Hub — Starehe Boys' Centre LMS
Client: Starehe Boys' Centre
Starehe Boys' Centre runs a high-intensity coding bootcamp through their STTI programme. We built a custom Learning Management System that replaced manual tracking with real-time dashboards for grades, attendance, and student progress.
The Challenge
The STTI coding bootcamp was tracking 37 students using spreadsheets and manual registers. Instructors had no way to see a student's full picture at a glance — grades, attendance, and project submissions were siloed in different places.
Manual attendance registers prone to errors and loss
No unified view of student performance across modules
Students had no visibility into their own progress
Generating end-of-cohort reports was a full day's work
No system to flag at-risk students early
The Solution
We built a purpose-fit LMS for the STTI bootcamp — simple enough for instructors to use without training, powerful enough to give every student and admin a real-time view of performance.
Student onboarding with profile management
Real-time attendance tracking per session
Grade entry and module-by-module performance dashboard
Student portal — each student sees their own grades and attendance
Admin overview with at-risk student flagging
One-click cohort reports for end-of-programme review
Tech Stack
Measurable Impact
"The system went live on day one of the cohort without a single issue. Our instructors adapted immediately and students love seeing their dashboards. It made the whole programme feel more professional."
