Listenable Launches Audio-Based Learning Platform with the Biggest Library of Original Audio Courses
[ad_1]
Today, Listenable, a new audio learning platform, launches with more than 100 original audio courses created by world-class experts.
Listenable allows people to access powerful, bite-sized audio courses that they can listen to at any time, anywhere. Each audio course is divided into several lessons that listeners can enjoy in short bursts. These lessons are generally around 5 to 10 minutes long. The courses cover a wide variety of subjects, from personal development and self-care to career skills and productivity.
Courses available on Listenable feature industry experts, including best-selling author Paul Sloane and professor of psychology, Daniel McGrath. Chris Croft also has several courses available, as well as 18 video courses on LinkedIn Learning, which have been viewed by over six million students.
Examples of courses available on Listenable include:
● Mastering Your Conversations
● How to Improve Your Memory
● Build Your Best Day
● Persuasion Science Masterclass
● The Psychology of Decision Making
● How to Read and Retain More
● Overcoming Mindless Negativity
● Learning How to Think Clearly
● How to Boost Your Confidence
● Productivity Hacks: Lessons from Top Leaders and Billionaires
● How to Be Good at Stress
● Develop Your Lateral Thinking Skills.
All courses are available for members online at listenable.io or in the Listenable iOS app.
Artem Zavyalov, one of the creators of Listenable, explains: “We combine the benefits of podcasts and online video courses at Listenable. We create a new way to learn on the go.” The motivation behind the design is about pairing convenience with real learning. “We just don’t have time for learning. Podcasts and audiobooks really leverage our time, so we can learn while commuting or exercising, but they have drawbacks. Audiobooks are too long; they can take upward of 20 hours to complete. Podcasts are hit or miss; you never know what you’re going to learn in the next episode. Online courses are often video-based, but no one has time to sit down and watch a video these days. With Listenable, you can learn screen-free, anytime and anywhere, even while you are doing something else.”
Learners so far are enjoying the app, with rave reviews like this one from _fantaghiro: “This is a must-have app for anyone who can’t live a day without learning. Exciting and relevant short courses available for you anywhere you go in audio form — so easy to get addicted!”
The team behind Listenable also created Highbrow, a learning platform that provides course materials in bite-sized pieces via email over a period of several weeks per course. Highbrow has been in existence for over five years and has had more than 500,000 students. As podcasting became more popular, creators Jane Lymanska, Artem Zavyalov, and Alex Strelkov made the transition from written content to “listenable” content that students can easily consume on the
go.
Listenable understands the value of having amazing educators. For this reason, to get unlimited access to all courses on the platform, learners will need to purchase a subscription. Listenable returns between 30% and 50% of the total revenue generated from subscriptions to educators.
Today, there are already thousands of paying members. Students can try Listenable free for seven days and then choose between a monthly subscription at $15 per month or a year-long subscription for $90.
