The problem
The Untapped Potential of the Agent Economy and Armenian Education's Shortfall

The rise of the Agent Economy marks a generational platform shift, opening new opportunities for industries to use AI agents to transform jobs and processes. From customer service to sales, legal, and healthcare, AI agents are poised to reinvent SaaS, eat into labor budgets, and turn low-margin services into scalable software solutions.

However, despite the vast potential of AI agents, the Armenian educational system struggles to produce critical thinkers and problem-solvers. Traditional education methods fail to prepare students to face real-world challenges or to capitalize on the opportunities emerging from AI and the Agent Economy. Instead of creating proactive thinkers and innovators, Armenian education often focuses on rote memorization and passive learning. This leaves a massive gap between the skills needed for tomorrow’s economy and the capabilities of today’s graduates.

Without the ability to solve customer problems or approach challenges creatively, Armenian professionals risk being left behind in this AI-driven era. BuildUp School is here to bridge that gap.

Our solution
AI-Enhanced, Problem-Based Learning for a New Era

At BuildUp School, we are creating a new kind of education. Our platform harnesses the power of AI—specifically ChatGPT—to offer personalized, problem-based learning experiences that push students to think critically and solve real-world challenges. However, we don’t rely on AI to provide content. Instead, AI serves as a tool to generate motivational, custom challenges that require active engagement. No more passive video watching or endless reading. Students are tasked with solving complex problems from day one, applying their knowledge in hands-on ways that mimic real-life job situations. Whether you're training in product management, design, marketing, or engineering, you’ll build a product portfolio that showcases your skills to future employers.

How Do We Achieve Results?
A Blend of Technology, Practical Challenges, and Community

We combine the latest advancements in AI technology with problem-based learning (PBL) methodologies to ensure our students are not just passive learners but active problem solvers.

Here’s how we do it:
1. Customized Learning Paths: Every student embarks on a personalized learning journey. AI generates unique challenges tailored to each student’s abilities, goals, and progress, helping them sharpen their skills and build confidence.
2. Hands-On Problem Solving: Our curriculum is designed around real-world problems that mimic the tasks professionals face in their careers. Students learn by doing, not by memorizing facts or watching videos. This practical, experiential learning ensures they develop the skills employers are looking for.
3. Community and Mentorship: Learning isn’t just about tasks—it's also about collaboration and feedback. Our platform fosters a vibrant community of learners and mentors who provide support, insights, and real-time feedback. Students are encouraged to connect, learn from each other, and collaborate on projects that make an impact.
4. Constant Iteration and Improvement: We track student progress, gather feedback, and continually refine our programs to ensure they are meeting the needs of the market. Our approach is dynamic, adapting to new trends and technologies to keep our students ahead of the curve.

By focusing on practical challenges, AI-enhanced learning, and strong community support, we are preparing the next generation of professionals to not only succeed but thrive in the global Agent Economy.

The most exciting part? Our education is going to be free for all Armenian citizens. As we scale globally, we are committed to keeping education free in Armenia for as long as we exist, ensuring that local talent can thrive in the global economy.
