Learning Paths
Get ahead with guided online marketing training
Improve your skills, learn new ones and then apply them - through modular e-learning integrated with our comprehensive guide and template library.
What are Learning Paths?
Smart Insights Learning Paths provide a flexible e-learning solution where learners can complete individual modules, curated topics or structured courses based on their skill development needs. Unlike many online learning courses, it is not mandatory to complete each Learning Path in its entirety! Learning paths use an engaging, interactive learning format featuring text, images, video and questions to explain concepts, give examples and test understanding. This segmented approach allows you to dip in and out of your learning, all of which is regularly updated by a team of experts headed up by Dr. Dave Chaffey. Learning Paths are now available with all our Memberships.
Personalize
Different team members can progress through Learning Paths specific to their individual roles and personal learning objectives.
Apply
Every Learning Path integrates with our library of actionable guides and planning templates, allowing you to put training into practice.
Review
Performance and progress can be monitored by managers and team leaders, so you can easily highlight areas for improvement.
Professionally accredited learning courses
Each Smart Insights Learning Path has been independently assessed and
accredited by the Continuing Professional Development Standards Office (CPDSO), so you can be confident that the quality of the learning and assessment experience has been audited and recognized for its quality.
