About the Project

I designed and developed this online certification course for HubSpot Academy to teach search engine optimization to a global audience of marketing professionals.

  • Conducted needs analysis
  • Worked with SEO subject matter experts
  • Wrote video scripts and created visuals 
  • Filmed videos for 5 modules
  • Designed and created assessments (5 quizzes, 60 question exam, worksheets, and study guide)

(You must sign up for a free HubSpot account to access the full course)

Tools

The tools I used to develop this course include Microsoft PowerPoint for slides, Screenflow and Audacity for screen recording and voiceover narration, and a custom LMS. I filmed using a Nikon DSLR and an iPad as a teleprompter with PromptSmart Pro. (Video editing outsourced)


Processes

I followed the ADDIE model in creating this course, beginning with an in-depth analysis of the topic area with SMEs, defining learning objectives, developing content, launching in the LMS, and finally evaluating success using a post-course survey in SurveyMonkey and data from Amplitude and Looker.


Results

Since its launch in May 2021, this course has awarded over 15,000 certificates to learners who have completed the course. It maintains a steady NPS of 60, and is currently being localized into additional languages due to strong demand.
