Learn how to approach your community strategically.
Engagement tactics were the job in 2018. Today it’s strategy, measurement, and persuasion. We’ve trained 1,300+ community professionals, more than any other organisation.
The community professionals thriving in 2026 are the ones who can set strategy, prove value with data, and win arguments inside their organisation. That’s what we train.
Making real trade-offs: which audiences, which goals, which of the five strategic directions, and what you stop doing.
Moving from activity reports to impact and ROI. The difference between a team that gets budget and one that gets cut.
Winning support from executives, legal, product, and support. Usually the actual bottleneck, and almost never trained.
Using AI in your workflow and preparing your community’s knowledge to feed your organisation’s AI tools.
Four levels, from the free Successful Community Management course to our expert program on persuasion, motivation, and engagement. Certification at every stage.
Customised training built around your team’s actual challenges, in person or remote. The format we used to train teams at Wix, SAP, and Align.
For larger organisations: standards, governance, templates, and training that let every team build communities the same proven way.
Our cohort program for community teams navigating AI: what to adopt, what to ignore, and how to make your community indispensable to your organisation’s AI plans. Next cohort starts 5 October 2026.
