Transform Expertise in 60-Minute Experiences

The Challenge

Traditional professional development is broken. It's often boring, irrelevant, and fails to deliver real-world value. Learners crave engaging experiences that foster mentorship and spark personal growth.

The Opportunity

We're building a new model for professional development, harnessing the rise of freelance experts and the demand for niche learning. We empower seasoned experts to share their craft with learners who are eager for mentor-led insight and perspective.

Our Approach

We identify high-demand skills and partner with the right experts to distill their knowledge into impactful workshops. Through a blend of storytelling, interactive exercises, and collaborative problem-solving, we create transformative learning experiences that:
Spark curiosity and ignite potential
Foster meaningful mentor-learner relationships
Equip learners with actionable skills in just one hour
Elevate the quality and relevance of professional development

Our Model

We envision a global network of Chalkmark workshops, each tailored to local needs and cultures. Like TEDx, we're fostering a platform where ideas and expertise come to life, but with a deeper focus on mentorship and hands-on learning. We're not just transferring knowledge, we're shaping individuals through formation.

Our Search

We seek talented instructional designers, facilitators, and scenario-based learning experts to help us design and deliver these transformative experiences. If you're passionate about mentorship and eager to explore a new model for learning, we want to hear from you.
Together we will:
Identify emerging experts and thought leaders
Understand learners and their unique needs
Design compelling, interactive learning journeys
Foster meaningful mentorship relationships
Iterate and adapt to create a continuous learning loop
