Customized eLearning Modules

What do these four Storyline eLearning courses have in common? Well aside from being designed and developed by me and created in the same authoring tool, not a lot! The visual design for each of these eLearning's was developed to be a perfect fit, think getting a pair of jeans tailored. This was based on: - The end user - Any company branding - Accessibility - Content / subject matter You may be thinking, well isn't that obvious? But integrating these points can be a lot more subtle than simply adding an image related to a paragraph of text, or sticking a logo on a slide. For example content, my 'Mastering Email Communication' is designed to mimic windows from an internet browser or email app. All content is housed within these windows and the layouts are kept simple and consistent to support the end user, who is likely to be less tech savvy. The Allergen Awareness course has a bento style design. Content is segmented for easy reading, but also to mirror the intended message of 'separation' and avoiding cross-contamination. The intention of the CPI eLearning was to put a spotlight on the brand, therefore it was important this client's logo and colour scheme were always recognisable. This 5-minute marketing microlearning needed to look polished and professional and took reference from the CPI website, to allow potential customers to make that link. Finally Genius, a client with very simple branding. I was tasked with creating a suite of eLearning, therefore the design of these became much more abstract and less content specific. Instead brand and accessibility were the key reference points, ensuring each eLearning could be recognisable as a Genius course - but didn't feel repetitive. Fluid abstract shapes and the 3D rounded rectangle interface took inspiration from the Genius logo which features a circular design. All started with a blank canvas, but each show how visual design can help tell the story of an eLearning and why it's important to be weaving visual design into every stage of the instructional design and development process.

→ What if learning worked more like Netflix? ← (Not binge-watching. But personalised. Modular. On demand.) In most companies, development looks like this: ↳ An annual plan ↳ A fixed curriculum ↳ “Learning days” blocked months ahead ↳ Mandatory courses tied to promotions ↳ E-learning modules no one remembers (but tick the boxes) ↳ One-size-fits-all classroom events But growth doesn’t follow a calendar. And curiosity doesn’t wait for Q4. Imagine this instead: You’re preparing for a critical pitch → You access a peer story on handling stakeholder objections You promote your first manager → You get a 30-day trust-building framework You’re scaling fast → You pull up a 3-step tool for delegation You’re facing team burnout → You tap a checklist on resetting team rhythm without losing momentum You’ve just missed a quarterly target → You review a case study on course-correcting under pressure No waiting. No box-ticking. No “this course starts in November.” This isn’t “micro-learning” like you’ve seen before: ✖️ Surface-level videos ✖️ E-learning portals in disguise ✖️ Tips that expire in 3 minutes ✖️ One-size-fits-all advice repackaged as “insight” ✖️ Static content that never adapts to your role or moment It’s high-context, high-quality, high-impact support - right when it matters. Because most real learning happens… → Before a tough conversation → After a tricky debrief or feedback discussion → When a client throws a curveball → The moment you realise you’re the bottleneck → When your systems break, and speed matters more than polish → When a new hire asks a question you don’t have the answer to → When a last-minute leadership request forces you to rewrite your narrative fast So what if learning met those moments? ✅ 5-minute playbooks based on real experience ✅ Slack nudges that prompt smart reflection ✅ Debriefs that turn stories into team rituals ✅ Tools surfaced by need, not by schedule ✅ Searchable prompts woven into daily workflows ✅ Peer-powered insights that scale with your challenges This is modular, contextual, and learner-led development. Not another course. Not another content dump. Just the right insight. At the right time. So you can act with clarity. ... and the real takeaway: If we want learning to be used, not just offered, we need to make it timely, practical, and frictionless. That’s how you build capability in the flow of work. #LearningAndDevelopment #Microlearning #FutureOfWork #JustInTimeLearning #PeopleDevelopment

Amazing! This is the present and the future of learning experience creation. I now have a fully working system that automatically personalizes learning based on learner data, data from the business, and learner actions. The cafe scenario based learning experience I created is supposed to mimick logging into a fake Point of Sale System (POS) and launching training alongside the POS. I created a system on the back end that pulls in data on who the cafe lead is, their store, scans multiple stores reviews to pull the matching data on their specific store reviews, generates a scenario tailored just to them with OpenAI, and sends it straight into my scenario template. The learning experience they load on their screen updates almost instantly. This means no more manually creating learning experiences for different audiences. I can now automatically create a dynamic, data driven learning experience that adapts itself the second the learner enters the system. Now that this is working, the next steps are to limit the scenarios to pull only from data in a specific time period. If current data is missing, the system will fall back to other priorities like safety goals or incidents at nearby stores that could happen here. I also need to update the visuals so the images match whatever scenario is generated or remove them when they are not needed. This is the type of system I deeply care about building. It uses learning sciences, automation, and AI to create scalable experiences that support business needs. What possibilities do you see when learning experiences can adjust immediately based on data and actions? #LearningDesign #VibeCoding #LearningSciences #GenerativeAI #AIinLearning #n8n #LearningEcosystems #EdTech #WorkplaceLearning #InstructionalDesign #PersonalizedLearning #FutureOfLearning #eLearning
