Welcome to FursaFlow

You can’t get experience without already having experience. FursaFlow is how you break that cycle.

Experience comes from two things: real work, and someone who already has the job you want. Usually, a job is the only place you get both. FursaFlow gives you both.

Where each half comes from

• Knowledge comes from mentors: people who do the job for a living and work directly with you.
• Real work comes from briefs posted by Teams: real problems a business needs solving.

A mentor doesn’t give you the work, and a brief isn’t a lesson. You get the most from FursaFlow by doing both.

How it works

1. Teams post real briefs

Design problems, marketing challenges, data tasks and product features. Real work a business needs doing, not classroom exercises.

2. You learn and you work

Take on a brief. Alongside it, work with a mentor through a free slot, a single session, a package or ongoing mentorship to close the gaps between what you know and what the job needs.

3. You deliver, and your record shows it

When you complete a brief, the Team can issue you a Brief Record. When a mentor reviews your work directly, they can sign a Verified Skill. Only mentors can issue one. Both are permanent, and anyone can check them.

Who FursaFlow is for

Learners

Take on real briefs, learn from a mentor and build a record that proves you can do the work. Learner quick start →

Teams

Post a brief your business doesn’t have capacity for. An Open brief is free to post. A Supervised brief pays the learners doing the work and funds a senior advisor who’s accountable for how it’s run. Team quick start →

Mentors

Get paid to pass on what you know by mentoring learners, advising a Team’s brief or running a programme for an organisation. Mentor quick start →

Organisations

Want to develop your own people? We bring in mentors who do the jobs your staff are growing into, in a programme built around your goals. Talk to us →

The FursaFlow standard

Clear terms

An Open brief is unpaid and must mainly benefit the learner. A Supervised brief pays the learner per milestone and funds a required advisor. You’ll always know which one you’re looking at before you apply.

Real proof

A Verified Skill only comes from a mentor who reviewed your work. A Brief Record only comes from the Team whose brief you delivered. Both are tied to a real piece of work.
