Evolution of the Designed Reporting Advanced Specialization Path

Announcing the New Two-Tier Designed Reporting Learning Journey!
We are excited to share an update to our Advanced Design Reporting training. To better support your professional growth and provide a more structured learning experience, we are transitioning from our legacy course to a brand-new, two-tier learning journey.
Whether you are looking for a quick foundational refresh or a deep-dive, hands-on masterclass, this new structure is built to match your schedule and learning style.
What’s Changing?
We have split our curriculum into Level 1 and Level 2 paths. This allows you to build a solid foundation at your own pace, or take your skills to the next level through an interactive, collaborative cohort environment.
Choose Your Path:
Level 1: On-Platform Designed Reporting Fundamentals
Best for: Learners who need foundational skills or a flexible, self-paced refresher.
Time Commitment: ~3 hours (Self-paced)
What you’ll learn: This standalone path replaces the legacy Advanced Design Reporting course. It covers document importing, on-platform layout, and troubleshooting across 5 key modules.
The Outcome: Earners will master foundational expertise to execute high-impact layouts and sophisticated designs, ensuring your technical reports are polished and visually compelling.

Level 2: Draft to Delivery (The Cohort Experience)
Best for: Learners ready to deeply apply their skills, practice in real-world scenarios, and get direct feedback from Workiva experts.
Time Commitment: Multi-week cohort experience
What you’ll learn: Designing effective reports requires hands-on practice. This high-touch, collaborative cohort combines self-paced learning with guided practice, live sessions, and expert feedback so you can build reports with absolute confidence.
The Outcome: By completing the cohort, you will earn both the Level 1 and Level 2 digital badges, distinguishing yourself as an On-Platform Designed Reporting Practitioner capable of delivering advanced, publication-ready reports.

Why we redesigned this experience
We restructured this journey to reflect how design skills are actually built. While foundational concepts can be learned through self-paced videos, mastering designed reporting requires hands-on application and feedback.
At the same time, we know flexibility is key. If you don't have the time for a multi-week cohort, Level 1 remains fully available as a standalone option to complete whenever fits your schedule.
Explore the paths today and choose the learning style that works best for you. Both tracks are available right now in the Workiva Learning Hub and Partner Resource Library!
