Case Study: Wallbreakers builds a scalable certification program and increases applicants 40% with Thinkific Plus

Breaking down barriers for diverse talent through online training

Wallbreakers, an AI-powered training platform founded by Andrea Guendelman, Leah La Salla, and Isaac Saldana, helps diverse recent computer science graduates break into top tech roles. To scale standardized certification, track student progress, and reduce talent-placement friction for partner employers, Wallbreakers partnered with Thinkific and adopted the Thinkific Plus online education platform.

Using Thinkific Plus features—certificates for course completion, advanced reporting, group analyst tools, multimedia delivery, and automated reminders—Thinkific enabled Wallbreakers to standardize training, identify drop-off points, and improve cohort outcomes. As a result, Wallbreakers issued 500 certifications and saw a 40% increase in applicants, fueling rapid growth and stronger, employer-ready candidate pipelines.
