Flagship modules
Once a quarter we’ll release flagship modules. These modules will take 5-6 weeks to complete, be packed with video learning materials, downloadables, quizzes, written assignments, and you’ll get live feedback on your work from a member of the dslx team. Writers will earn different badges when completing each module that will be displayed next to their name if published on the dslx resources hub.
micro masterclasses
Micro masterclasses are released monthly and deal with more pressing topics in the content community. These classes will typically range from 1-3 hours and will be a mix of video and written content. They’ll include quizzes, and assignments will receive written feedback from a member of the dslx team. Get you unstuck and on your way.
Homework & cheat sheets
We’ll pepper masterclasses and modules with homework and cheat sheets. These will range from handy downloadable reference materials for when you’re stuck in the weeds to templates & SOPs to personalized yoga classes for the writing community. Need something specific? Let us know and we’ll build it for you.
