Frequently Asked Questions
How do you make the training relevant to our business?
We use your data wherever possible, and make sure all examples are specific to your website and data. Our trainers often go through the account and data beforehand to familiarise themselves with your specific setup to suggest improvements. If there are specific areas you want to cover we can change up the sessions to skim over some areas and go deep on others, or even mix and match modules from different courses.
Does it matter if my team is in different locations?
Not at all, all of our training is hosted on Zoom and is accessible with any stable internet connection. We also arrange the training session times with your team so that everyone can join regardless of time zone.
Can team members choose which sessions they join?
Yes of course. However, we strongly suggest attending the preceeding modules as there is content in there that we build apon throughout the rest of the course. If people want to drop off at certain points, they are welcome to, we just recommend not joining part of the way through.
Do I need a Google Analytics account?
You don’t need access to a GA account to attend the course as we will provide you with examples and take you through the features and reports using the demo account. However, if you do have access to your GA account, you’ll be able to follow along using that.
What do I do if I’m running late or cannot join a session?
If you are just running late or can’t join for some reason don’t worry! All training sessions are recorded and shared after the course has been completed.
