Abstract:
    People often do not know how to approach a specific goal. We aim to provide a system to guide users in achieving their career goals. Our system will allow a user to input a goal, let us say web development. It will then generate a roadmap containing a list of skills to learn, with various learning resources to choose from. The system will also keep track of the progress of the user.
What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ?
    The number of internet users has grown in the world from 413 million in 2000 to 4.7 billion in 2021. Information is more accessible now, but searching for what you exactly need is like looking for a needle in a haystack. We aim to solve this problem with our project.
Who needs it ? How many would benefit ?
   Any one of the 7.9 billion people in the world who has a goal that he/she wants to achieve, can use our application to do so, especially people who find it difficult to find information online about their goals.
How will the solution works
    The system will take user's important details, along with his goal. From his goal, job posts from job search platforms will be gathered and clustered using NLP, to extract "common skills" from the posts. Using this list of skills, the system will gather learning content and resources from the web. The system will generate a roadmap, that is a list of contents that the user can go through, and mark items as "completed", along with the ability to track the progress.
Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different
    There are many online course providers like Coursera. Their content is not personalized for the users. However, we take users' current skills into consideration, and provide resources based on them. This way users can learn new skills without any time wastage.
