You mean CMX from Bevy?

Jennifer Lyons June 16, 2025 at 06:01 PM

Yes @Joel Primack. Are they more oriented towards community and CX?

Massive +1 to Community Strategy Academy

<@U07U1ME4ML0> no, I was just curious to learn what their focus is and what people think of them.

Community Strategy Academy >>>

<@U07U1ME4ML0> thank you for the tips. I’d rather toe in the water and take the free course at Community Strategy Academy for now! Beyond supporting a community via Influitive five years ago, I haven’t owned community, but I think it’s something I would enjoy and I think doing some of the free courses will be adequate. I read David Spinks book years ago and liked it, but dropping $500 on another course right now isn’t something I want to do!

With the job market the way it is right now, I don’t think I’ll get the chance to try much in the way of community work without significant prior hands-on experience.

Would you like my POV on your above point, @Jennifer Lyons ?

Jennifer Lyons July 30, 2025 at 09:30 PM

@Joel Primack would love your generalized take on the market. It seems like all the JD’s and the recruiters/hiring managers can ask for proven experience…as well as desire for specific tools used.
