💡 Show & Tell: How The Fountain Institute designs their cohort-based live courses
​If you're designing cohort-based live courses, you're in for a treat! 🥳
​The Fountain Institute builds cohort-based live courses prioritizing engagement, interactivity, and practicality.
​Their approach goes beyond traditional recorded sessions with assignments; instead, they offer a series of dynamic, interactive workshops. 🌟 These workshops immerse participants in real-world projects, seamlessly integrating with their professional work. 💪
​Like a skilled designer, Hannah is leveraging the very skills she teaches—research, experimentation, strategy, and facilitation—to meticulously build and prototype their learning experiences.
​Their commitment to evolution ensures that the courses remain innovative and effective, delivering lasting value to the participants.🔥
​Here's what Hannah has in store for us:
​—How do we best understand our audience before we start designing?
​—How do we make 2-hour online workshops feel like 20 minutes
​—How do we offer learning opportunities after the course
