Solutions
Three groups of solutions, each built for the teams doing the work.
Talent and careers
Launchpad gets new officers and newly promoted staff fluent in your institution in 30 days. Managers get a coach for every person on their team. Prospect research, advancement services, operations, and communications get development built for their roles, not borrowed from fundraising training.

For managers and leaders
01
See high-level trends across your team: who's ready for what, where skills are growing, and where the shop needs more reps. Individual conversations stay private, which is why people use it, and your one-on-ones can focus on the support your team needs the most.
02
Coach Tivy isn't only for your team. Strategize with Tivy about the one-on-one you're dreading, feedback that has to land, a performance review, the stay conversation with a top performer, or the campaign update for your VP. Think it through, then get private reps before you have it for real.
03
Every person on your team gets a coach before any conversation that matters, at 10pm before a donor lunch or between back-to-back visits. They're not waiting on your calendar, and you're not the only teacher anymore.

“I consider team members as pipeline talent, not just prospect pipelines. Tools like Practivated are critical for UCF and valuable for their personal growth as well.”

FAQ
Does this replace our training methodology?
No. Many partners pair Practivated with a methodology they already use.
Some of our teams never talk to donors. Is this for them?
Yes. Prospect research, advancement services, operations, and communications have high-stakes conversations too: briefing an officer, explaining a gift agreement change, pushing back on a data request, aligning with a dean's office. Their scenarios are built for their work.
Does it work for corporate and foundation relations?
Yes. Program officer calls, corporate partnership pitches, and proposal debriefs get the same coaching and reps, with scenarios built around institutional funders.
Can alumni relations, donor relations, and events use it?
Yes, with scenarios built for their conversations, from reunion chairs to first-time guests.
Can managers see their team's conversations?
No. Managers see trends, never transcripts. People choose what to share.
What about IT review?
Security documentation, including a HECVAT, is available on request.
How long does it take to get started?
About 3 business days, with no integration and no data needed.
For university advancement
Start with one team and one rhythm: Launchpad for new hires, four Practivated Live sessions a year, or Coach Tivy as needed. No integration and no donor data.
