When staff need to learn about psychologically complex topics, such as vicarious trauma, burnout, moral injury, or working with distressing content, the details matter. Framing, accuracy, and knowledge of context all shape whether learning helps people or misses the mark. That kind of specialist expertise often isn’t available in-house.
Our new Learning Design & Development page explains how we partner with learning teams and production partners to bring deep knowledge of stress, trauma, and staff wellbeing into the learning they’re building. We can create:
Every project starts from a different place. You might have a course topic that needs specialist content, existing materials that need expert review, or an important issue your people need to understand but no clear learning approach yet.
When you have a learning team, we work alongside your instructional designers to clarify the learning need, shape the design, develop the content, and refine it as it moves through production. When you don’t, we can design and develop complete courses and resources for you, prepared for the platform you already use.
Recent projects include an e-learning course on psychological safety when working with graphic content for a global technology platform, a work-life wellbeing e-learning series for trust and safety teams, and multilingual wellbeing videos and live learning series for a UN agency supporting staff in active conflict.
If you’d prefer live sessions, our Training page covers the facilitated training we deliver for staff, managers, and leaders.
Developing learning on stress, trauma, resilience, or wellbeing? We’d be glad to talk about how we can support your project.
