Instructional design, but make it good
Let’s be real: workplace training doesn’t have the best reputation. Too often, it’s a snooze-fest of boring presentations and forgettable info-dumps.
But imagine a world where learning was actually engaging. Maybe even (dare we say it) fun. That’s the power of instructional design – the craft of creating learning experiences that keep people awake and interested.
“Yes! Workplace training today!”

WHAT IS
INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN?
At its core, instructional design is the art and science of crafting learning experiences that stick. But it’s so much more than just dumping information on learners and hoping it sinks in (that’s so last century).
At Hungry Minds, we’re are the masterminds behind training that doesn’t suck. The learning we create is effective, impactful, and dare we say it – even enjoyable.
By taking a systematic, learner-centred approach, we create programs that are:
- Engaging: We make learning people lean into. Well-designed learning activates minds and sparks curiosity.
- Effective: We ensure that training is focused, practical and aligned with real-world performance needs.
- Efficient: Thoughtful design makes the best use of everyone’s time and energy. No filler, no more wasted hours, no ‘meh’.
- Enjoyable: Great instructional design makes room for creativity, unpredictability and even a little humour.
The end result is training that’s custom-built for the needs of your learners and organisation. No cookie-cutter courses or one-size-fits-all approaches. Just learning that captivates, activates and truly clicks.
And that’s exactly what we deliver. Every. Damn. Time.
And in today’s fast-moving world, where upskilling and reskilling are a constant, that’s more important than ever.
Less ‘house red’,
more ‘matched wines’.
