Does anyone use Typeform for on-line courses


I would appreciate any feedback on using Typeform for on-line courses and the experience you are having. 

Thanx

Hey @Appreci8, yes, I recommend checking out the post that @john.desborough mentioned (glad you found it useful, Des).

Another great one that springs to mind is The PowerMBA. They run their courses off of Typeform embedding their training materials as videos into typeforms and using logic to route students down different paths to enhance their learning experience.

I spoke with one of the founders a couple of years ago and he told me they were pretty much running a lot of their operations with Typeform (besides the courses themselves, they use TF for lead generation, course feedback, etc.) At the time their courses were only in Spanish but now they are expanding internationally – here's an article on Medium about their growth 

If you're interested in learning more about their solution, let me know and I'll see if I can find out  if they are willing to come onto the community to share with us what they're doing.

Awesome, thanks for the input @john.desborough . While we're on the subject of guest spots, I would still love to speak with you about sharing the amazing concoctions you're rustling up with Typeform. Liz passed on your email to me so will take this "offline" if you're still up for it and we can discuss :)

@James I was just about to post about the PowerMBA using typeforms in their courses! I’m in their course and can vouch for how seamlessly they add it in. I think they may use our APIs to add in the forms, so they’re a bit advanced in the setup, but it works really well.

Cool! @Liz How are you finding the course? I'll find out if they can come on and talk about the magic behind it the form integration.

I’ve been a little bit slow with the course because classes started again at my regular school, @James , but that’s more a personal problem ha! Though, I really love the setup they have, including using the Typeforms to check in on the learning progress. I’m the kind of person that needs those little reminders, even if it’s just one or two questions to check my knowledge. They have a fantastic setup. 


I am trying to create something similar to ThePowerMBA, do you have more details?

I think Typeform, doesn't allow you to link one to another like they do. In the image, you can see how they do it.

Hey @Ecoforest Academy! Why don't you share your use case with us on this thread (posting this image over there as well)? 

This way, other users can collaborate with you, give you feedback. You can also ask for ideas on how to build the flow of your form! 

Let me know if you have any questions! :wink:

@James Did we have an article about how the PowerMBA uses typeform? I think they might use our Embed SDK to add the forms in, @Ecoforest Academy , but don’t quote me on this!

@Liz @Ecoforest Academy   we didn’t run an article with the PowerMBA in the end. However, I can ping them and see if they wouldn’t mind shedding some light on how they integrate their forms into their course. Will let you know if they are prepared to illuminate us!
