Case Study: Scaling a Learning Programme Under Tight Deadlines

Overview

I led the design and delivery of a large-scale, MaPS-accredited learning programme to support organisational capability in delivering advice services.

The programme now supports over 3,700 learners and continues to evolve through ongoing iteration and improvement.

The Problem

The organisation needed to rapidly deploy a structured learning programme to meet accreditation requirements and support service delivery.

Key challenges included:

  • Tight delivery timelines
  • Complex, content-heavy subject matter
  • Need for compliance and accuracy
  • Large and diverse learner audience

My Approach

Given the time constraints, I made the decision to adopt a minimum viable product (MVP) approach.

Rather than delaying for a fully polished solution, I:

  • Prioritised speed to launch
  • Focused on essential content and structure
  • Prioritised speed to launch
  • Planned for phased improvement post-launch
  • I worked closely with SMEs and stakeholders to ensure the initial version met compliance needs while remaining usable.

What I Delivered

  • A fully structured learning programme hosted on the LMS
  • Initial MVP version using text-based content to meet deadlines
  • A phased roadmap to evolve content into interactive digital learning
  • Coordination of a small team of contractors to support development
  • Integration into existing LMS pathways and reporting structures

Impact

  • 3,700+ learners enrolled
  • 2,500+ completions
  • Improved learner ratings from 3.4 to 4.2 stars within 7 months
  • Successfully transitioned from MVP to fully interactive learning over 8 months

Reflection

This project reinforced the value of balancing speed and quality in learning design.

Launching early allowed us to meet business needs while gathering real user feedback, which directly informed improvements. The iterative approach not only improved learner satisfaction but also built stronger stakeholder trust over time.

It also highlighted the importance of designing for scalability—ensuring that content, structure, and systems could support a growing learner base without compromising quality.

Case Study: Accessibility Framework

The Problem

Inconsistent accessibility across learning content

My Approach

  • Designed a standard framework (incorporating WCAG 2.1)
  • Introduced guidelines and templates
  • Embedded into LMS processes

Impact

  • Improved usability for all learners
  • Ensured compliance
  • Standardised content quality

Building Foundations in Instructional Design

Overview

My role at The AA marked my transition into instructional design within a regulated environment.

Starting in a customer-facing role, I progressed into a Junior Instructional Designer position, where I developed core skills in learning design, stakeholder collaboration, and digital content production.

Key Contributions

  • Designed and developed digital learning solutions aligned to business and regulatory needs
  • Conducted learning needs analysis and defined objectives and success measures
  • Created storyboards and learning content for digital delivery
  • Collaborated with SMEs to ensure accuracy and compliance
  • Published SCORM-compliant courses to LMS platforms
  • Seconded into role after identifying patterns from the public and developing a video solution to address the issue


This experience built my understanding of how structured learning design supports real-world performance, particularly in high-stakes environments.

Creative Foundations & Entrepreneurship

Overview

Before moving fully into L&D, I ran a small media production business specialising in Wedding videography.

This experience developed my ability to manage projects end-to-end, work closely with clients, and produce high-quality digital content under pressure.

Key Contributions

  • Delivered full-scale projects from planning through to final production
  • Managed client relationships and stakeholder communication
  • Developed strong storytelling and visual communication skills
  • Handled all aspects of business operations, including budgeting and planning

This background continues to influence my work today, particularly in how I approach engagement, design, and user experience in learning.
