Sample entry. Fictional, included so you can see the layout.
Dar Atlas trains graduates for the offshoring sector, where employability turns on assessed French and a narrow set of technical certifications. Cohorts are paid for by employers rather than learners, which changes the unit economics entirely.
Model
Employer-funded cohorts with a placement guarantee. Revenue is lumpy and tied to hiring cycles at a handful of large buyers.
What to watch
Concentration risk. A single employer pulling a cohort moves the quarter.
