Smart Courses: Dealing with People

A Smart Course is an asynchronous development program, of medium duration (2-8 weeks), aimed at immersing professionals in personalized content and self-directed learning paths, in order to master a specific topic, completely customized to their personality and behavioral style. Smart Courses include: personalized videos, back-at-work tasks, assignments, coaching messages, simulations, and other mechanics.

A Virtual Workshop is an intense, one-off synchronous training event of short duration (8-24 hours, split into a series of 4-hour sessions) that is aimed at quickly up-skilling professionals on a certain topic or serving as a learning refresher.

A Corporate Retreat Boot Camp is an in-person, team development intervention, taking place in our Cyprus training grounds. There, we take professionals through a targeted workout of communication, inter-reliance, and self-management, by immersing them in outdoor, team problem-solving exercises that surface the behaviors we want to address. As such, the Boot Camp’s agenda is constantly being adapted to professionals’ progress through the exercises. And this is how we offer real-time assessment and development of each professional’s unique needs.

A Bespoke Academy is a development program of a longer duration (3-18 months), aimed at achieving a set of strategic development objectives for a select group of professionals. To do this, we draw upon all of the tools in our toolbelt, such as Virtual Workshops, Corporate Retreat Boot Camp, Smart Courses, in-person training, learning videos, back-at-work tasks, company-wide and large-scale projects, simulations, coaching, questionnaires. This and much, much more, all tailored to your needs.

Unlike other online learning courses you may have experienced, a Smart Course speaks directly to YOU.

Huh?

The entire course is customized to a professional’s behavioral style and personality (assessment takes place prior to start), allowing us to offer self-directed learning paths enriched with a blend of interactions: YouTube-style videos, back-at-work tasks, assignments, coaching messages, and simulations.

In other words, professionals experience content and interactions that speak directly to THEIR personality and behavioral style. THEIR needs. Feedback for THEM. Hacks that apply to THEM.

2-8 weeks. It depends on the topic. Although professionals follow their own self-directed learning paths, certain steps or stages of the course are drip-fed, to promote immersion in a topic or to enable the processing of information presented at a deeper level. No matter what the case, smart courses are designed to be as unobtrusive as possible to professionals’ daily workloads.

There is no limit to the number of professionals you can sign-up to our Smart Courses. Our Enterprise Sales team will help you navigate group sizes and bulk discounts depending on what you have in mind. Get in touch.

The three stages that make up a course are: (a) an onboarding period where professionals get familiarized with the style of the course and some basic principles, (b) the main body of the course’s content and all interactive touchpoints, and (c) an offboarding period which includes the messages needed to promote the internal need for progress and any follow-up actions.

Nothing. Expectations cause misunderstandings. And that drives a wedge between us. But in all seriousness, if you wish to participate in our beta program, you’ll have a chance to be the first to get a free demo of our courses. In exchange, we’ll ask you for your valuable feedback which will inevitably impact how we drive our L&D revolution. And we’ll love you for it.
