Wowzers! It's been super exciting here at Curiosity Tank. We are terrifically busy!

• Our WInter 2022 Ask Like A Pro cohort is about to wrap up. Unfortunately, two All-Ins came down with Covid so we pushed back their two client presentations. Boo Covid! Yea awesome cohort!

• We completed five more corporate training workshops in May (in addition to five Ask Like A Pro workshops). All were for international attendees. Two were in-person in Stockholm. Wow, what a fantastic city! These workshops range from highly customized to "off the shelf." Learn more about our UXR team training here

• Our Fall Ask Like A Pro cohort is filling up! The All-In seats are half-filled. Have a question? We love questions! Please email Michele directly. And check out the FA22 cohort calendar.

What are the ins and outs of Rolling Research?

There have been a ton of questions about this lately so we planned an event on this specific topic!

In this session, you will learn about different approaches to RR programs, gain tips for setting up and optimizing RR, identify various tactics to recruit RR participants, and discover nuances of conducting RR compared to other types of user research studies.

This session will be held as a live Zoom webinar with live transcripts. A recording will be available for all registrants. Join live or watch the recorded replay! Topics we’ll cover:
