The research methods predominantly followed were: Kick-off calls, Stakeholder interviews, Competitor Analysis, UX Audits, User Interviews, User Surveys, Contextual Inquiries, etc.

We kick-started the project with the Stakeholder interviews with the majority of MADE EASY team. We spoke to the chairman, management and marketing team members, and teachers and gleaned many insights.

Project

Description

NEXT IAS is an initiative of the MADE EASY Group to guide and mentor every student of the NEXT IAS family through quality teaching and personalised support throughout his journey as a Civil Service aspirant. NEXT IAS believes that “It is the quality of teachers that decides the quality of students”.

Additionally, the team wanted to enhance their web app with more features that would aid the students with their preparations and keep them on track with their studies.

We conducted a user survey to gain more useful insights. We circulated a survey among different NEXT IAS student communities and groups, who were our target audience. We received more than 500 responses for the same.
