+# 2025 11th May
+
+Attendees: Adam, Saloumeh, Mechii, Rachel, Daniel, Natalia, Marco
+
+## Agenda
+
+1. Reflect on last two weeks (what worked, what didn't)
+1. Run through current tasks
+1. Plan next tasks
+
+## Relection
+
+### Calls for resolving questions
+
+Adam - Having a quick call with a few relevant mentors around a specific topic (e.g. react) was really helpful to unblock a lot of the major questions quickly. Definitely worth using this approach on modules/tasks you're on, if you need feedback/input from others (instead of relying only on async).
+
+### Hard to find documentation
+
+Marco - Final project template was new to him, but useful to know. Would help to have a clear list of all important docs/features of the curriculum (e.g. mentor guide, tools etc.).
+
+**Action:** Continue discussing/gathering feedback on this topic (e.g. [slack](https://hackyourfuture-cph.slack.com/archives/C070USK1UET/p1746530677744939), or a github issue) and tackle it after the restructure.
+
+### Need clear project plan
+
+Rachel - Deadlines, milestones with clear scope and dates. Things that could help:
+
+- Iteration over "all in one" e.g. get existing content in now, later on create a milestone just for fixing language, removing school-like language etc.
+- A deadline for "all major changes to be complete". Nothing new after, only fixes, tweaks.
+
+Adam - We have a planning session with the staff team to update the project plan. Will update here after.
+
+**Action:** (Adam) Write a task to finalise a clear project plan over the next week or two.
+
+## Tasks update
+
+### Databases
+
+Saloumeh has feedback to share from the trainees. Marco to have a meeting with Magdalena and Saloumeh to plan more. Databases throws people in the deep (confusing) end quick - Web Arch 101 will help clear up some of this fundamental understanding of databases. Rachel will create an outline for that module today.
+
+### Final project
+
+We can start planning this now. Priority is foundation final projects. Adam to organise a meeting. Try find some mentors who've ran final projects previously to help. Natalia and Rachel volunteer. Daniel is interested, but not right now.
+
+## Next steps/goals
+
+**Top focus:** Complete the foundation course using restructured content as much as possible.
+
+### Next session
+
+2 weeks from now. We'll meet up in person at the offices. Saloumeh will be in aarhus :)
+Anyone who can help Adam set up the cph office (buying food, setting up the room) please come early!
+Saloumeh will send the invite this week.
