The one-liner
A Skool training room that teaches architects and landscape designers to use Vectorworks on real projects.
What they actually sell
Vectorworks Training Skool, run by Jonathan Pickup, lives on Skool. Its public pitch: "Courses teach tools, we teach projects." The paid door is Standard at $36 a month. Premium and VIP tiers sit above that. Jonathan Pickup's line is courses teach tools, we teach project solutions. Inside, members learn real-world workflows, the when and why rather than the how, practice integration to set up files and deliver drawings faster, and strategies to stop clicking and start designing. It covers BIM in architecture and complex landscape design. A newsletter and contact email appear on the page. Inside sit 21 courses and a dense module library. A formal money-back promise is not spelled out on the about page.
Who pays and why
Architects and landscape designers who know the buttons but hit a wall on real projects. They need workflows that work under deadline, not more how-to videos. They pay for real-world workflows, practice file set-up and efficiency strategies.
Where the members come from
Jonathan Pickup's YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, X and website presence appears to feed the room. The Skool community reads as the member back end for people already drawn to that work. Exact follower counts stay off the public page.
What's holding it back
Premium and VIP tiers are not described, and the page relies on short quotes rather than real project examples.
Steal this
Position your community against the courses members already took, by teaching the gap they left.
Would this work in another niche?
Yes for any professional software, such as Revit or SolidWorks. Weak for consumer tools.
