Learning + content

MacroLingo content + Sci-Train expert seminars/webinars, and e-learning for your university or organization, Asia- and Europe-based

Education. Publicity. Impact!

Researchers, universities, NGOs, and companies in the scientific industry are in constant need of professional development. A single course or seminar series is often not enough; a more holistic approach is needed to both improve in-house skills and business outcomes. We partner with Tokyo-based Sci-Train to meet demands for integrating academic training and content, offering a package that combines learning and content.

Through this partnership, we use global academic and scientific publishing experience to deliver more practical and effective learning opportunities with our team of instructors and content creators, either in person or online. Please get in touch to discuss this service for your organization.

A series of sessions is usually necessary to truly guide and achieve learning. However, sometimes a single session is required, such as for researchers in a particular subject area or for new peer reviewers. We can arrange those, as well.

First, we like to know about your financial ability and your specific aims. We also want to try our best to encourage you if you’re from the Global South or face any sort of budgetary constraints. After we consider your situation, we may request full or partial payment in advance (especially for seminars and learning), or a monthly retainer arrangement paid upon job completion may be better for you. Let’s discuss it and find a way to make it work for you.

As content director for multiple companies, Dr. Dyke was called on to produce educational materials in the form of seminars/webinars as well as written material in the form of web content, blogs, etc. He also commissioned visuals. For the written aspects, Dr. Dyke and Dr. Goulston are frequently collaborators, as companies and organizations often want a combination of educational and marketing-oriented materials. This lets us offer a unique combination of academia and business knowledge in a “content” package.

For learning in the form of seminars/webinars, this may depend on user feedback and how rapidly learners can implement what they have learned. That is a shared responsibility. For content, we can apply traditional metrics such as viewers, impressions, and conversions. We’ll be happy to discuss your unique situation and how we can achieve the goals you want.
