Airport Staff E-Learning App
A minimal training app built for ground and ramp staff to complete mandatory safety certifications between shifts, without friction.
Year :
2025
Industry :
Aviation / Corporate Training
Tools :
Figma
Project Duration :
1 Week
Overview :
This app strips airport ground-staff training down to its essentials: find your course, complete the lesson, pass a short quiz, get certified. Built as a single, flat experience rather than a dense LMS, it covers the full loop — login, course discovery, in-lesson content (slide decks and text lessons), timed assessments, certificates, and a lightweight comment thread on each course — all in a clean, high-contrast, minimal interface designed to be used in short bursts between shifts, not sat down at a desk.
Problem :
Ground and ramp staff compliance training is traditionally paper-heavy or classroom-based, with no easy way to track who's actually certified, or to fit training into the short breaks staff actually have.
Key pain points identified:
Mandatory safety training (ramp operations, ground handling) tracked manually, with no reliable way to verify compliance
No quick way to find and resume a course between shifts
Assessments and certificates handled outside the app, easy to lose track of
No lightweight way to ask a question or get clarification mid-lesson
Existing training tools too dense for staff who only have a few minutes at a time
Solution :
A minimal, purple-accented app that reduces the entire training loop to as few taps as possible — open the app, find the required course, complete the lesson, pass a short quiz, and walk away with a certificate.
Key screens:
Challenges:
Designing for interruption. Staff rarely finish a course in one sitting, so every screen had to make "where was I" obvious at a glance — progress bar and lessons-left counter — instead of relying on memory.
Urgent without looking alarming. The "Mandatory" badge needed to stand out against already-colorful course thumbnails (safety posters, aircraft imagery) without tipping the whole app into looking like a warning system.
Quiz UX on one screen. Fitting a question, four options, a progress bar, timer, and pass score onto one screen without scrolling took several passes — resolved by pushing content full-bleed and keeping only essentials above the fold.
Minimal vs. dense content. Course detail and certificate pages naturally carry more information than the rest of the app. Keeping them from breaking the minimal visual language meant leaning on typography and spacing restraint rather than new UI patterns.
Outcomes:
One flat, single-role learning app spanning login, course discovery, lesson content, assessment, and certification
26 exported screens covering onboarding, home, course content, quizzes, certificates, and profile
A quiz flow with live progress, timer, and pass score, built for short, interruption-tolerant sessions
Mandatory vs. optional course status visible from the very first screen
Learnings:
Designing for "five minutes between shifts" forces real discipline — every extra tap or menu level was worth questioning.
Status and urgency cues (mandatory badges, pass/fail, progress) carry more of the UX than copy does when users are skimming, not reading.
A flat navigation structure holds up well until content density (certificates, course detail) tests it — worth stress-testing early with real content, not placeholder text.
Single-question assessment screens tested far better than one long scrolling quiz.
