Abstract

Current education systems only provide limited opportunities to collaborate and learn from each other through traditional settings. This has created a barrier to establishing an ecosystem to support ongoing development through collaborative efforts using the latest technology. To solve this problem, this tool Skill Swap was created as an AI-based solution that gives developers and learners access to skill-set exchanges, matched mentors and peer-to- peer structured learning experiences. Using AI-based chatbots that verify the skills claimed by users, creating interactive dynamic skill profiles that ensure that mentorship will be matched with the appropriate user based on skills and provide a secure and trustworthy way to connect and interact with mentors and users. The main page of the platform has been designed using a simple User Interface (UI) that will give learners a list of categories, the ability to find mentors, and a simple onboarding process. Additionally, the platform includes a recruiting module that helps businesses identify verified candidates. This AI-based tool was created with a focus on scalability, security, and accessibility to foster the development of an engaged digital community and allow members to learn from each other and develop together.
