A. Toy Courses is the masterclass platform for the toy industry. Whether you’re just curious about how the business works or already a professional looking to sharpen your skills, you’ll find programs, guides, and tools to help you grow. Our library spans everything from starter courses for newcomers to career-boosting masterclasses and even practical tools like our Toy Trade Show Handbook, which has been used by both beginners and seasoned pros alike.
Q. What types of courses do you offer?
A. Our masterclasses are 1-hour trainings led by toy industry experts. We also host live workshops and challenges, which are your chance to get direct mentorship from instructors. After the live session, recordings are made available to purchase on the platform.
Q. What free resources are available?
A. Right now, you can download our Toy Idea Starter Guide and 10 Things You Need to Know Guide for free. Soon, we’ll also be adding a brand-new Making It In The Toy Industry training experience, complete with worksheets and quizzes to test your knowledge from the award winning podcast.
Q. How do refunds work?
A. We want you to be happy with your purchase. Because our programs are digital, each one comes with its own refund policy.
– Live programs typically offer a 14-day refund window, minus a non-refundable processing fee and the retail value of any physical course materials already delivered. – Non-live programs, downloads, or digital resources are final sale since you get instant access.
Be sure to read each course’s terms carefully before purchasing. If you’re unsure, email us anytime at support@thetoycoach.com.
Q. Is there a community?
A. Yes! You can join discussions in our community forum here: Toy Courses Community.
But what really makes Toy Courses fun is our Leaderboard. Every time you engage with this platform whether by logging in, completing lessons, posting comments, or even trying a new program, you earn points called EP. The Top 10 students each month are celebrated on the leaderboard, and top engagers each month are eligible to win surprise digital or physical prizes!
Q. How are the courses delivered?
A. Some programs are completely self-paced, while others are live and time-bound. Each course description will spell out exactly what to expect. Still not sure? Reach out to us at support@thetoycoach.com and we’ll help guide you.
