Create a technical program

A Program is a technical reference tied to a discipline and a grade. It lists required techniques for that grading and can include documents (PDF, videos).

Why

• Coach side: lesson-prep support, evaluation baseline.
• Member side: clear view of techniques to master for the next grade. Shown in the member panel and the mobile app.
• Organization side: standardize pedagogical content across coaches and clubs.

Admin panel → Programs → New program.

Fields

• Name (e.g. Yellow Belt Judo Grading).
• Linked discipline.
• Target grade.
• Age range (optional — you can have kids and adult programs for the same grade).
• Description / intro.

Technique categories

Organize techniques into blocks:

• Nage-waza (throwing techniques).
• Ne-waza (ground techniques).
• Ukemi (breakfalls).
• Etc.

Individual techniques

For each:

• Name (English + Japanese / Portuguese / etc.).
• Description.
• Video (YouTube, Vimeo URL).
• PDF (detailed sheet).
• Importance (essential / bonus).

Member-side view

Members see:

• Every program for grades they've already earned (historical reference).
• The next grade's program highlighted.
• A personal checklist: mark each technique as Mastered / In progress / To learn.

Use case — orange-belt program

1. Create Orange Judo Grading.
2. Discipline: Judo, Target grade: Orange.
3. 3 categories (Nage-waza, Ne-waza, Ukemi).
4. Add 8 throws, 4 ground holds, 2 breakfalls.
5. Attach YouTube videos.
6. Every yellow belt automatically sees this program in their panel.

Use case — shared multi-club program

You have 3 clubs with different coaches. To standardize:

1. Create programs once at the organization level.
2. All coaches share the same reference.
3. Gradings in each club follow the same criteria.

Versioning

When you edit a program, changes are immediate for all affected members. To keep history of an old version, duplicate first then archive the old one.
