These programs go beyond training; they are a core part of how we scale product knowledge, deepen educator engagement, and generate viral momentum across districts. This is done in tight coordination with our Customer Education team, who support our district partners in 1:1 education and training.

• Develop onboarding and retention resources including guides, FAQs, one-pagers, and self-service support content tailored to different K–12 personas

• Manage updates and improvements to Help Center and Resource Hubs in collaboration with CX and Product Marketing

• Create, manage, and distribute customer content (e.g. newsletters, one-pagers, tips, FAQs, case studies, support docs, onboarding guides) to drive product adoption and client self-sufficiency.

Lifecycle & Retention Campaigns

• Partner with CX, product management, product marketing & growth marketing to build and optimize email nurturing and/or triggers for engagement, usage health, and upsell readiness

• Support Cx team in building segmented outreach campaigns for account-specific or segment-specific moments—e.g. pre-renewal playbooks, new leader onboarding, school year kickoff

Community Building

• Cultivate vibrant user communities through events, discussion groups, and digital engagement (e.g. Pioneers, webinars, office hours)

• Foster peer-to-peer learning and idea exchange among users via online forums, success stories, and spotlight features

Experience & Qualifications:
