PSTA (Professional Skills & Tech Academy) trains students in Abbottabad and online across Pakistan in in-demand digital skills — Python, AI automation, digital marketing, ethical hacking, e-commerce, social media marketing, full-stack web development and more.
I designed and developed PSTA's platform so a student can discover a course, compare fees, apply online, log in and later verify their certificate — all in one place. The site is built to rank: structured course pages, a career-guide blog and technical SEO make PSTA discoverable to students searching for courses.
It is also where much of my own teaching happens: the photos on this site are from certificate ceremonies of PSTA students who completed courses like Office Automation.
The challenge
A growing academy needed more than a brochure site: students had to find the right course, trust the academy, enrol without visiting, and prove their certificates to employers — while the academy needed to be found on Google.
How I built it
Structured the site around the student journey: discover → compare → apply → learn → verify.
Built verifiable certificates so PSTA credentials carry weight with employers.
Added online admission so students from all over Pakistan can join live online batches.
Invested in SEO and content: course schema, career-guide blog and fast pages.
The result
A complete academy platform supporting 23 courses and 500+ students across campus, online and hybrid learning — with a 4.9★ Google rating shown on the site.
