Invent

Summarizing the processes when building features for CPaT Invent. Features could have had a different process depending on urgency and availability of resources, we could start with ideating working on affinity maps, requirements, wireframes to then more precise documentation or surveys where we could test the designs for the different devices, to then update the requirements documentation to keep it up to date along with high fidelity mockups.

Humble Beginings

My first job as a UI Designer was at CPaT, when I started working in the different products and teams, I had not much experience in building User Interfaces for the different products and devices or in User Experience (I started to learn from the IDF). The team leaders were so supportive to guide me through the company processes and to exploit my talents to bring more value to the team.

P.S: The Design of Everyday Things by Don Norman was my first book related to User Experience.

CPaT Invent - Lesson Player Iteration (concepts back in 2019 - 2020)

My first design mission was to work on the upcoming CPaT product called "Invent". The product goal was to revolutionize the way that Courseware Developers could build aviation related training (current target industry) and at the same time, being able to manage the content.

Invent over time

CPaT Invent has been enhanced over time, thanks to the feedback that we have been gathering from CPaT's clients and due to the efforts on enhancing the product to be more intuitive and offer features that would bring solutions to our client's needs.

The following is a brief set of different features that were designed for CPaT Invent.

Asset Library Manager

The Asset Library Manager is a feature within Invent that would allow Courseware Developers to have access to the curated CPaT graphics library and, to also have the opportunity to built their own. Each asset can be categorized with specific data so then could be easily found in the future to be added to other lessons, saving the Courseware Developer time by not having to upload an asset every time it was needed.

Early and Latest Asset Library Concepts

Properties Panel

The Properties Panel allows Courseware Developers to see and change the properties of the selected object in the canvas.

Freeform-Annotations

The Freeform-Annotation will allow the Courseware Developer to create custom annotations to highlight desired areas in the canvas.

Lesson Player

The Lesson Player allows the Courseware Developer to preview the content that was created for Students. The Lesson Player will also be the interface that Students will be able to use to see the assigned content (the following is a newer design concept).

Walk Around

The Walk Around is a page type that is available in Invent. In here Students are able to "walk around" a specific type of fleet and learn about the highlighted pieces of the aircraft (early concept).

Ongoing Projects Sneak Peek

The following are some ongoing projects that will be developed in collaboration with the different teams of developers and contractors.

Student Panel

Redesign Project

The Student Panel is one of the CPaT's products, where students are able to take their assigned training, upload required documents, track their training progress and, have access to certificates.

This project has been a done in collaboration with the amazing "TeaCode" team from Poland. I have had the opportunity of collaborating with their team of talented developers and designers to enhance the user experience of the Student Panel.
