Case Study: Fast-growing analytics company (founded by Spenser Skates & Curtis Liu) builds a developer community and scalable certification platform with Mercer Mettl

Creating a successful community marketing campaign for coders with Mettl

Fast Growing Company, a San Francisco–based, fast-growing analytics and certification platform, wanted to build a developer community and launch an enterprise-grade certification program but faced time, resource, scale and functionality constraints. To support community marketing for coders and ensure credible certifications, they evaluated Mercer Mettl and its online assessment & testing platform, advanced web proctoring, and the Mettl front-end simulator for hands-on coding assessments.

Mercer Mettl delivered an integrated assessment platform with robust remote proctoring and a customizable front-end simulator to test HTML/CSS/JavaScript skills and prevent cheating and impersonation. The implementation enabled Fast Growing Company to roll out its Certification Program, accelerate inbound, social and word-of-mouth channels, and meet global enterprise requirements; while the case study gives no specific numeric metrics, Mercer Mettl drove measurable improvements in assessment integrity, scalable testing functionality, and faster community-driven growth.
