For schools and districts
Risalto for Education
Enrichment in how real product teams work: Design Thinking, Product Ownership, Agile and Prompt Engineering, practised hands-on in grades 4–9 and taken from a real user's problem to a tested prototype.
Unique enrichment in four subjects
Every student course is 10 modules of 60 minutes, once a week, and ends in a credential students earn from the work they did.
Design Thinking
Design Thinking
Students observe and interview a real user, frame a "How might we…" question, build a paper prototype and test it. They leave with a problem brief and a tested Prototype v0.
Credential: Design Thinker
Product Ownership
Intro to Product Ownership
Teams write a product vision, turn ideas into a prioritised backlog, plan a Now / Next / Later roadmap and pitch the result. They leave with Prototype v1 and a pitch.
Credential: Junior Product Owner
Agile
Intro to Agile
Teams build Prototype v2 in small increments on a visible team board, using the Agile values and roles, and teach one idea back to the class.
Credential: Agile Thinker
Agile Sprint
Teams take the roles of a real product team and run two complete sprints: planning, standups, the sprint board, review and retrospective. They leave with a sprint-board portfolio.
Credential: Sprint Teammate
Prompt Engineering
Intro to Prompt Engineering: Talking to Machines
Students write clear prompts with the Job + Task + Details recipe, fix prompts that miss and check answers before trusting them, from pre-written AI examples. No student uses an AI account or a live model.
Credential: AI Explorer
Offered alongside
Digital Literacy: Smart, Safe & Creative Online
Students work through their own digital lives, staying safe online, judging information and media, and creating responsibly, and finish with a digital-citizenship PSA.
Credential: Digital Citizen
For your staff
Agile Sprint Facilitation
Professional development for teachers: an introduction to Agile, with ideas for using it in the classroom as a framework for group projects, which usually come with no way for a group to work together. It closes with a practice lab the teacher runs themselves.
Credential: Agile Sprint Facilitator
Who is behind it
Risalto for Education comes from The Trevi Product Group, which brings decades of US tech-industry experience from VMware, Google Cloud, SAP and Apple. That includes experience launching two industry credential programs: VMware Certified Professional and Google Cloud Certified. The skills these courses teach are the ones real tech teams use, and their credentials are designed by people who built industry certification programs.
