Nowadays, online course is prevalently accessed by students since there is a need to upgrade their skill sets with the current skill trends. A skill that is developed using an online course would usually be able to help the student to shorten the gap between the school and the workforce. Regardless, student still find a difficulty to complete the online course. The main reason for not being able to finish the online course is varied on each person but it is most commonly due to the procrastination on completing the course. According to the Harvard and MIT study, only a single digit percentage [1] of people actually did finish their online course which is an outstandingly small number. Hence, this project aims to develop an online platform that helps people to complete their online course. During the development process the minimum viable product and the highly scalable server architecture have successfully been implemented.
