Australian eLearning company · Onshore since 2007 · From $8,000

An Australian eLearning development company that builds courses, not platforms.

Most eLearning content providers sell you a subscription to someone else's library. We're a bespoke eLearning provider — an Australian team that designs and builds your courses from scratch, then hands you the source files. If you're shortlisting eLearning content development companies, here's what we'd want you to compare us on.

Most of that gets blamed on the learner. It’s usually the supplier.

That’s not a training cost. That’s a wasted one.

Plenty of eLearning companies in Australia will take your content, drop it into a template and send an invoice. We’re the other kind — we design the thing before we build it, and we’ll tell you when what you’ve asked for won’t work.

What you get from an eLearning development company that builds.

Some clients arrive having already been let down by a supplier. Others are outsourcing this for the first time. We pick you up wherever you are.

eLearning content development

Scripting, learning design, visual design and build, done by one team. Unlike most eLearning content providers, we’re not reselling a catalogue — everything is written and built for your organisation, your scenarios and your language.

A studio, not a freelancer bench

Twelve permanent staff plus a specialist network of around twenty we bring in by project. Big enough that your program doesn’t stall when someone takes leave, small enough that the person who scopes your project is the person who designs it.

A bespoke eLearning provider, not a platform

We don’t sell licences, seats or a content library, so we’ve got no reason to steer you toward a product. We build the courses. You keep them.

Works with the LMS you already have

SCORM and xAPI as standard, tested on your platform before handover. We’ve deployed to dozens, so we know where each one misbehaves. If you haven’t chosen one, we’ll give you an honest opinion — we don’t take referral fees.

Built for the platform you’re on.

We've deployed courses to dozens of LMSs, so we know how they behave. If you've already got one, we build to it — SCORM or xAPI, tested before handover. If you're still choosing, we'll tell you what we've learned. We don't sell platforms; we build the courses that go on them.

Real numbers,
before you pick up the phone.

Most eLearning companies in Australia won't publish a number. We will. The variables are how ready your source content is, how much interaction you want built, and how long the finished course runs — but you shouldn't have to sit through a discovery call to find out roughly what this costs.

Every project includes

  • Your branding — colours, fonts, look and feel
  • Learning map and learner journey
  • Scenarios, knowledge checks and interactions
  • Licensed images and media where they earn their place
  • Three rounds of edits and co-design
  • Editable source files — the IP is yours
  • …plus optional extras, depending on scope

Our approach

ADDIE, with extra flavour.

Every build runs through the same five stages. It's not glamorous, but it's why our projects don't blow out — and why you'll know what you're getting before we build it. Your eLearning consultant stays on the project from first scope to final handover.

Which one’s yours?

Most people arrive here in one of three situations. Tell us which is closest and we'll scope from there — you don't need it worked out before you call.

You're shortlisting suppliers

You've got three quotes to compare and they all look the same on paper.

  • Wants a like-for-like scope, not a brochure
  • Needs a real number before a business case
  • Procurement and accessibility requirements

The last provider let you down

It shipped late, it looked generic, or nobody finished it.

  • Needs a supplier who pushes back early
  • Has content that may need rebuilding
  • One accountable person, not a handover chain

You've never outsourced this

You know the training's needed. You don't know what to ask for.

  • Wants help writing the brief
  • Unsure what's realistic for the budget
  • Needs it to work on your existing LMS

Big 4 experience.
Nothing like Big 4 invoices.

Our team has built learning inside the big consultancies. We just didn't fancy the overheads, the eleven-person pitch team, or passing any of that on to you. No account manager relaying messages to a production team offshore — the person who scopes your project is the person who designs it.

FAQs

Questions,
answered.

The things people ask us most. Got something else? We're happy to chat.

Ask who actually does the work — the person in the room or someone offshore you’ll never meet. Ask what you own at the end. Ask to see something they built in your sector, not just their showreel. Ask what happens when the first draft misses. And ask for a number before the third meeting. Any eLearning development company that won’t answer those early is telling you something.
An agency, and deliberately not the other two. We don’t licence software and we don’t sell subscriptions to off-the-shelf courses, which means we’ve got nothing to upsell you into. Most eLearning content providers make their money on renewals. We make ours on the build, so the build has to be good.
We’re not the cheapest and we’re not Big 4. Freelancers will beat us on price and carry more risk; the large consultancies will charge two to three times what we do for a similar scope. Our pricing is published on this page so you can check that yourself rather than take our word for it.
Three rounds of edits and co-design are in every project as standard, and the design is signed off before we build — which is where most rework gets avoided. If the storyboard is wrong we’d rather find out at storyboard stage than at beta.
Yes. Twelve permanent staff plus around twenty specialists we bring in by project, and we’ve run multi-module rollouts for government, health and ASX-listed clients since 2007. If a program is bigger than we can do well, we’ll say so rather than take it and struggle.
Almost certainly. We work across government, health, financial services and high-risk industries. Tell us your sector on the first call and we’ll show you the closest work we can share — some client work is under NDA, and we’ll be upfront about what we can and can’t put in front of you.
100% onshore. Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, Perth and Adelaide. Nothing is sent offshore and there’s no account manager relaying your feedback into another timezone. It’s part of why we’re not the cheapest quote you’ll get.
Everything. The IP is yours, and where you hold a licence for the authoring tool you get the editable source files, so you’re never locked into us for a typo fix. That’s the test worth applying to any supplier on your shortlist.

      * Licences are per year, from US prices at A$1.4391 per US$1 (RBA 12-month average to 26 October 2026) plus a 7.5% margin. The actual price is set by the exchange rate on the day you buy, so it may differ from the prices shown here. Please treat licence prices as a guide.

      Not ready to commit?
      Fair enough.

      A quote costs you nothing and commits you to nothing — and if the scope's wrong, we'll say so before you spend.
