Scaling Customer Education with Kevin Dunn: Building Adoption Flywheels

In this episode of The Adoption Curve, I sit down with Kevin Dunn, Head of Customer Education and Community at Airtable, to discuss scaling customer education programs and share practical frameworks for learning and development leaders.

Kevin reveals why early-stage customer education doesn't need to be fully formalized to be impactful and explains why aligning education to customer activation milestones is critical for success. We also dive into his 5-category reporting framework that you can implement immediately to improve training effectiveness, user adoption, and technology implementation outcomes.

If you're a learning and development professional, customer success leader, or enablement manager looking to build or scale customer education programs, this conversation provides the exact steps you need.
