“Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.” – Henry Ford
At Skill College, we are building a disruptive education platform that has the power to transform learning worldwide. To achieve this, we must ensure zero-compromise on quality.
This policy is designed to:
- Reduce production bugs
- Increase ownership & responsibility
- Create a culture of excellence and continuous growth
- Accountability drives excellence
- Collaboration reduces errors
- Every bug is a learning opportunity
“Mistakes are proof that you are trying — but repeated mistakes show lack of responsibility.”
| Level | Examples | Penalty | Liable |
|---|---|---|---|
| Critical (High Impact) | Data loss, payment failure, crash, login issues | ₹3,000 | Developer + Manager |
| Major (Medium Impact) | Wrong calc, broken features, security warnings | ₹2,000 | Manager (Developer if negligence) |
| Minor (Low Impact) | Typos, small UI mismatch, console warnings | ₹1,000 | Manager (Developer if careless) |
The CTO will decide which team (Backend, Frontend, or Mobile) and which individuals (Developer, Manager, or both) are liable for each bug.
“Responsibility is shared, but accountability is owned.”
- Developer Responsibility: Must disclose known issues, must test thoroughly.
- Manager Responsibility: Ensure review & testing before approval, cover missing scenarios.
- New/Unknown Scenarios: If unpredictable → No penalties.
At times, non-development team members (QA, Product, Support, or even other staff) may identify bugs before customers face them.
- In such cases, Skill College may provide a token reward to acknowledge their contribution.
- This is not guaranteed and will be at management’s discretion.
- Rewards can be in the form of vouchers, recognition, or small monetary bonuses.
“Finding a bug early saves a hundred users from frustration — and that’s worth celebrating.”
While penalties ensure discipline, we also encourage growth:
- Every bug will be discussed in retrospectives.
- Learning points shared across teams.
- 3 months bug-free → rewarded & recognized.
“Discipline is the bridge between goals and achievement.”
At Skill College, we are not just building software — we are creating a future-ready education system. This policy ensures that every line of code matters and that accountability leads to excellence.
“Excellence is not an act, but a habit.”
