When MyStrengths Needed More Than WordPress Could Give
How National Digital Helped Transform the Lives of Australian High School Students
Challenge
Outgrowing WordPress
When MyStrengths, an Australian company focused on improving the well-being of high school students, realised that their WordPress platform was limiting their potential, they sought a more robust and scalable solution. Despite having developed a powerful algorithm to enhance the lives of Australian teenagers, the limitations of WordPress were holding back their growth. Dan, Mystrengths founder, knew that continuing with this platform would mean compromises, so he turned to National Digital to help him build a more powerful and adaptable system.
Solution
Collaborating with National Digital
National Digital’s first task was to translate MyStrengths' vision into a technical architecture that could support their evolving needs. We worked closely with Dan and his team, converting business requirements into technical specifications and creating a foundation that could sustain their long-term growth. By pairing Laravel and Vue, we built a streamlined solution that handled user authentication, offered a dynamic dashboard area, and integrated a payment gateway to support both individual users and schools.
Development
Seamless Assessment Platform
The heart of MyStrengths’ platform is their strength-based assessment for students. We developed a system that allowed both individuals and schools to purchase access codes, complete the assessment, and instantly receive their results. The results were calculated through a sophisticated algorithm, providing students with immediate feedback on their strengths, helping them gain valuable self-awareness as they navigate their education.
Engagement
Empowering Students and Educators
For educators, we designed a comprehensive dashboard that gives teachers access to important data visualisation tools. This feature allows schools to track student progress, assess results at a glance, and share insights with students in a meaningful way. This level of engagement has been key to MyStrengths’ success, as it enables both students and teachers to benefit from the platform without technical roadblocks.
Growth
Perhaps the most exciting aspect of this project is its potential for growth. With the scalable architecture designed by National Digital, MyStrengths is now able to easily implement new features and custom functionality as their business evolves. This flexibility ensures that as the needs of Australian high school students continue to change, MyStrengths will be there to meet them, enriching student lives and helping educators in the process.
