COURSE BREAKDOWN
Curious what’s involved in our six succulent sessions? Here’s the downlow of what you can expect if you sign up to the Masterclass.
We can’t change our behaviour if we don’t change our mindset first. So this session is tailored to challenge deep-rooted beliefs in L&D and encourage attendees to start thinking differently:
- Why does L&D need to think like a marketer?
What is a marketing mindset and how to adopt it
What skills a marketing for learning practitioner needs
Customer-centricity and deepening understanding of audiences
Value proposition canvas
We often see L&D’s understanding of their audiences being very shallow, which results in their marketing and comms efforts misfiring and not resonating with audiences. This session is designed to show attendees how to build learner personas that are useful and practical.
- What is a learner persona?
What is the purpose of a persona?
What does building a persona actually entail?
How to build a persona
Triggering emotions and the WIIFM (what’s in it for me)
This session introduces the techniques behind a modern and effective marketing strategy:
- What is a marketing strategy?
Understanding the buyer’s journey in learning (AIDA and RACE models)
Understanding competition when marketing your learning
The importance of benchmarking
This session is designed to increase core tactical skills in L&D practitioners in the following areas:
- Copywriting
Email marketing
Visual language and design
Storytelling
This session builds especially on session 4 (but as you can see all the sessions build on one another) and is very practical. It focuses on how to use marketing tools such as:
- Copywriting tools
Design tools such as Canva
Data capture tools
User-generated content tools
The coup de grace. This session shows learners how all of the previous sessions work together to build out an effective learning campaign. It explores:
- 6 critical steps in campaign planning
Campaign hooks
Planning and resourcing etc
How it all comes together to make marketing magic
Once you've completed our Masterclass, we want to see all your learnings put into practice (ie, ensure maximum application and retention). Using tasks and assignments that you've had over the past 6 weeks, you'll be asked to create your own marketing strategy. We provide loads of tools and templates to make this as straightforward as possible - and then you'll have at least 8 weeks to complete and submit this. Of course, Ash and Han are on hand throughout to support and provide expert steer and advice.
This is how you attain your #PineappleArmy certification - we don't give certs for bums on seats 🤪
