Select Your Level

Level: Beginner
Purpose

This level introduces the idea of a content funnel, explaining why someone who has just discovered a problem needs different material from someone comparing two suppliers.

Outcome

You finish able to sort existing content by stage, spot the gap where readers have nowhere to go next, and plan the piece that fills it rather than adding more of what you already have.

What You'll Learn

  • You study awareness, consideration and decision stages, matching content to each stage, audience segments, simple journey mapping, and the internal links that move a reader from one stage to the next
Credits 199 CREDITS
Level: Intermediate
Purpose

This level builds the ability to design a funnel that actually connects, so that each piece leads somewhere useful instead of ending without a next step.

Outcome

You are able to build a funnel where each stage has a purpose and a next step, judge where readers stall, and report progress in terms of movement through the journey.

What You'll Learn

  • You work through segment-specific content planning, lead capture without deterring readers, nurture sequences, content mapped to commercial intent, and measuring movement between stages rather than page views
Credits 443 CREDITS
Level: Advanced
Purpose

This level develops advanced content strategy, covering how a funnel is planned for a long or committee-led purchase where several people have to be convinced.

Outcome

You can plan content for a purchase involving several decision-makers, give sales material that is actually used, and show content's role in a cycle too long for simple last-click reporting.

What You'll Learn

  • You study multi-stakeholder content, sales and marketing alignment, content for objection handling, topic authority across a funnel, attribution across long cycles, and consolidating content that competes with itself
Credits 668 CREDITS
Level: Expert
Purpose

This level suits readers who own content strategy as a whole, deciding what the organisation publishes, what it stops publishing, and how that is resourced. Deciding what to stop is treated as part of the strategy, not a failure.

Outcome

You are able to set content strategy across a portfolio, define standards and measurement others work to, and make defensible decisions about what to invest in and what to retire.

What You'll Learn

  • You cover portfolio content planning, governance and editorial standards, funnel architecture across products and markets, measurement frameworks, resourcing models, and retiring content that no longer earns its place
