about us

Why we built this differently.

Traditional learning often stops at knowledge. Knowing about a role is not the same as being able to do it.

// the idea

DoR — Definition of Ready — was created around a simple idea: people entering product careers need a safe place to practise the job before being expected to perform it professionally.

// mission

To make practical, real-world product experience accessible to people regardless of their previous career background.

values

What we believe.

Learn by doing

Practical experience creates deeper understanding than passive learning.

Real over theoretical

Training should reflect how product teams actually operate.

Collaboration matters

Technology professionals rarely work alone.

Evidence over certificates

Certificates are useful. Evidence of capability is more powerful.

Careers can change

People should have the opportunity to reinvent themselves professionally.
