Teaching Teams (Christina Becker)

Course Lab: Lessons from Successful Online Course Creators

Christina Becker is a nonprofit consultant, trainer, psychotherapist, and the founder of the Canadian Nonprofit Academy.

In this episode, Danny, Abe, and Christina discuss:

• Her background and how she came to be a course creator
• Balancing two different course businesses
• Her course being taken by teams instead of individuals
• Delivering very short course video lessons
• Roadblocks and iterations
• Her business model and reaching her target market
• How Christina overcomes resistance from prospects
• Why she chose a subscription model
• The joy of iterating your course

“Once you create a course, that's not it. It's a dance between your students and yourself and learning new things. And I think that's been really, really fun.”
