New Consultant Learning Journey
The Client Need
“We needed strategic design and development help with a learning journey for newly promoted / hired consultants. We knew what skills we wanted and had a basic sketch of a traditional journey – but we needed Socratic Arts to come with a focus on learner engagement and innovation; map the skills to each element in the journey; architect a journey roadmap; find ways to leverage our existing content; and create detailed designs for new, innovative content (especially the in-person milestone) – then build the necessary pieces.”
