ABOUT
US
Experts in helping humans learn things.
After 20 years in the instructional design game, we’re yet to meet an organisation we couldn’t help. Our methods are backed by data, insights and been-there-done-that experience.
Education should be fun, whatever your industry or role. In an industry of A4 handouts, PowerPoint slides and Plain Jane corporate types, we make instructional design material that surprisingly doesn’t suck.
Big enough to nail it.
Small enough to care.
We’re the Goldilocks of instructional design. Big enough to handle large projects, but small enough to care. Every client gets bespoke, tailored service with a smile.
We love getting to know our clients. We take our work very seriously, but not ourselves.

Our graphic design and branding brings a refreshing visual approach to learning materials. We create visually appealing content that captures attention and facilitates better understanding. Our thoughtful designs transform complex information into accessible, memorable visual bites that support effective learning across various mediums.
We connect the dots to make change happen. Our instructional design process involves structured and tailored programs that meet specific learning needs and optimise retention. We use evidence-based strategies to ensure that content is presented in the most effective sequence and format for learners.
We develop self-paced eLearning programs that offer interactive and flexible learning experiences. Our digital solutions allow learners to engage with content at their own pace, incorporating elements that make you go “oooooooh” – making for less yawning, more learning.
We design accredited training programs that deliver quality-assured qualifications that meet Australian Qualifications Training Framework (AQTF) standards, while seamlessly integrating with organisational needs, policies, and procedures. We strike a careful balance between regulatory requirements and workplace relevance, so that training fits naturally into a learner’s work rhythms.
We offer video production services to create dynamic and visually appealing videos that illustrate complex concepts, bringing learning to life. Our video content ranges from animated explainers to live-action demonstrations, enhancing engagement and improving knowledge retention.
Our podcast production service brings a fresh flavour to workplace learning, offering a flexible, on-the-go learning option. We blend expert insights, industry trends, and practical tips into carefully curated auditory content that immerses learners in engaging discussions.
We incorporate gamification elements to boost engagement, motivation and genuine capability shift. Our solutions transform traditional content into interactive challenges, because we believe learning should be active, whatever the content.
Our user experience (UX) and user interface (UI) design ensures that all learning platforms are user-friendly, intuitive and accessible. We prioritise creation of seamless experiences that enhance learning outcomes by minimising technical barriers and maximising engagement.
