Converting Test Prep Classes into Mentorship Cohorts — Skills Transfer for TypeScript Teams (2026)

Hook: Training Is Wasteful Without Mentorship — Turn Classes Into Cohorts

Short training sessions are common, but retention requires mentorship. This guide describes how to convert test-prep style classes into mentorship cohorts for TypeScript teams, with practical measures for ROI and retention in 2026.

Design Elements

• Small cohorts, 6–8 engineers per mentor.
• Project-based learning with typed deliverables and CI checks.
• Measure impact with creator analytics-style dashboards to see which docs and labs drive adoption.

Implementation Steps

1. Identify core skills and create typed starter projects.
2. Run a 6-week cohort with weekly syncs and asynchronous labs.
3. Measure retention and on-the-job performance improvements.
