First Principles Training

Skip what you've proven.
Train what you haven't.

First Principles Training adapts to YOUR knowledge. The engine assesses where you are, skips what you've mastered, and builds a personalized plan targeting your actual gaps — not a one-size-fits-all curriculum.

AI can generate answers. It can't generate understanding. First Principles Training builds the reasoning capability that AI tools depend on — not the recall they replace.

How It Works

1

Assess

Take a 15-minute diagnostic. The system identifies your exact knowledge boundary — where mastery ends and gaps begin.

2

Skip

Everything you've proven is skipped. No repeating what you already know. The engine focuses 100% of your time on actual gaps.

3

Train

Scenario-based items at your challenge boundary. Not too easy, not impossible. Every response refines the model. Monthly reassessment catches drift.

Why First Principles?

Baldwin & Ford (1988): Research shows 10-15% of corporate training transfers to on-the-job behavior. First Principles Training targets the 85% that doesn't transfer — by measuring whether it did.

For Organizations

Deploy across your workforce. Each employee gets a personalized training plan based on their actual knowledge state. You see the heatmap — who knows what, where the gaps are, whether training is working.

No more mandatory training hours on material your senior staff already knows. No more missed gaps hiding behind completion rates.

Honest Disclosure

First Principles Training uses adaptive technology validated against peer-reviewed benchmarks from the learning science literature. Performance is competitive with state-of-the-art adaptive systems.

We are early stage. The engine works. The domain banks are built. We are seeking pilot organizations to validate time-to-competency claims against traditional training baselines.
