No Analyst Left Behind: Hudl’s Committment to Education

As manager of customer solutions, Dan Nesbitt is the perfect person to discuss Hudl Academy and how it meets the demands of the modern analyst.

For Analysts, by Analysts

Led by Shayne Hall, our education team believes leveling up the knowledge of our users is an analysis solution in and of itself. It will unlock the deepest workflows possible in game analysis. With decades of experience in the fields of analysis and coaching, across multiple professional sports, we’re well prepared to help our users get there.

“In addition to their own coaching and analysis experience, our education team has instructed coaches, analysts and athletes worldwide on process, strategy and best practices,’’ explains Nesbitt.

“Through their instructional experience, they understand the key learning needs when it comes to analysis and review in elite sport, and they’re working toward addressing those needs in a number of ways. Because the team comes from the industry they serve, you can be confident that you’ll receive professional consultation that is rooted in the way modern teams operate.”

Beyond Onboarding

Our commitment doesn’t stop at basic product onboarding. We help users continue their professional development, inspiring even experienced “power users” to explore new and challenging workflows.

“As a global company with customers in 20 countries, Hudl has embraced e-learning as a way to extend educational opportunities to more of our users,” said Nesbitt.

“In order to stay ahead of trends, analysts need education beyond the basics. Launching in 2019, Hudl Academy will provide access to intermediate and advanced courses in an environment that allows analysts to learn at their own pace.

“Hudl Academy will be a one-stop shop for Pro Suite users to access courses for each core product and service. New advanced courses will be released regularly to continue professional development opportunities for experienced users.

“The platform will also play a key role in our launch of a global certification program in 2019. Analysts will have the opportunity to gain certification in individual products to enhance their professional resume while refreshing their knowledge and skills.”

Education Where and When You Need It

Hundreds of Hudl Sportscode users have attended product workshops in the past year to deepen their product knowledge and network with their peers. To provide more opportunities for users to build their skill set, we’re increasing the number of workshops in 2019.

“In the next year, we’ll put a renewed and global focus on the effectiveness, frequency, and geographic distribution of our regional workshops,” said Nesbitt. “Each workshop will have a programmatic theme, and many will include the opportunity to build toward product certification. In each of the events, our goal is to deepen the connection users have with product workflows, and the analyst community at large.”
