Fedena Gradebook
Education SaaSProduct DesignInternationalization
Overview
Gradebook was the assessment and grading module added to Fedena SIS to support international curricula. It needed to handle wildly different grading systems — letter grades, percentages, GPAs, weighted rubrics — without forcing one country's model on another.
Problem
Schools across geographies were stitching together spreadsheets and third-party tools to manage grades. Without a native module, Fedena was leaking customers in markets where assessment workflows were a make-or-break feature.
My Role
Product Manager — owned discovery, design, and launch across 10+ country variants.
Approach & Key Decisions
- ▹ Ran discovery with schools in multiple countries to map grading-system differences.
- ▹ Designed a flexible grade-scheme abstraction that schools could configure without code changes.
- ▹ Launched in waves by region; tracked retention and sales-growth signals against the rollout schedule.
Outcomes
- ★ 20% retention increase among institutions in markets where Gradebook launched.
- ★ 15% sales growth attributed to the module's availability.
- ★ Live in 10+ countries.
