How the course was born

Having worked with many established ‘non-digital’ companies, one common pain point stands out: the leadership often has little or no knowledge of how digital systems work.

This led to poor, costly and slow decision making.

This course was developed to help address the problem – it is challenging, fun and extremely rewarding.
