The Quirky Academy
About Our Academy
Quirky Academy was created to make high-quality SEO education more accessible to aspiring marketers, graduates and career changers.
We know formal SEO training is often limited, and much of what is taught can quickly become outdated.
Our team has sat through hundreds of graduate interviews where candidates were repeating tactics that no longer reflect how search works today.
That is why we built Quirky Academy – we focus on practical, current training shaped by real client work, live search trends and commercial experience.
Our goal is simple… help people build relevant skills, clear understanding and confidence to succeed in modern digital marketing.
Educating Local Digital Talent
We are proud to support the next generation of digital talent across Liverpool and the wider region.
In 2025 alone, Quirky helped train 250+ aspiring marketers through partnerships with the University of Liverpool, Agent Academy, Liverpool ONE, Tranmere Rovers and other respected local organisations.
We believe strong local talent creates stronger businesses, better opportunities and a healthier digital economy.
By sharing practical SEO knowledge, industry insight and career guidance, we help learners develop skills that employers genuinely value.
Supporting local growth is not a side project for us – it is part of who we are.
University Partnerships
We currently with respected organisations that want to give their students, members or teams access to relevant digital marketing education. We partner with the University of Liverpool to deliver annual workshops that create learning opportunities and pathways into internships.
We have also worked with businesses, education providers and community organisations looking to improve digital skills in a practical way.
Our sessions are built by practitioners who work in SEO every day, which means the advice is grounded in what actually works now.
We simplify complex topics, remove jargon and turn strategy into clear actions people can apply immediately.
Our FREE SEO Beginners Course
Last year, we partnered with a leading university professor to create an online SEO course is designed for anyone who wants to understand SEO without paying for expensive training or wasting time on outdated advice.
Whether you are a student, business owner, graduate or early-stage marketer, the course gives you a clear introduction to how search works today. We cover the fundamentals, explain what matters now, and translate technical concepts into practical next steps.
Lessons are straightforward, useful and easy to follow, even if you are completely new to SEO – it is the same practical mindset we bring to client work, made accessible to anyone who wants to learn.
