The typical CPD event often feels like a standalone activity, but what if it could be much more? In this video, Sean Gilligan, founder of Learner Journey, explores how to transform professional development events into a comprehensive and continuous learning journey. Discover the challenges of traditional event management – from promotions and registrations to payments, attendee tracking, and post-event resources. Sean reveals how organisations often juggle multiple systems, leading to inefficiencies and a disjointed experience. Learner Journey Events offers a unified platform to streamline every aspect of your CPD events. Learn how you can: - Create branded event pages for easy registration and payment processing (via Stripe). - Efficiently manage attendees, cancellations, and even tiered access for different audiences. - Integrate pre-event learning activities, like videos or assessments, to prepare participants. - Extend learning post-event with resources, follow-up assessments, and accredited certificates. - Leverage an AI tutor to provide ongoing support and answer questions based on approved content, ensuring the learning value lasts long after the session ends. This approach is ideal for teaching school hubs, multi-academy trusts, colleges, universities, and professional associations looking to build robust professional development programmes, not just isolated events. Understand how every touchpoint – from discovery to certification and beyond – can elevate your CPD offering into a truly connected and impactful learning experience. Join Sean as he outlines how Learner Journey helps connect all the dots, making your events the start of a meaningful learning journey.
