Instructional Design Consulting

Tagline
Learning programs built with purpose, relevance, and results in mind.

When you are launching a new initiative, adapting existing content, or improving the impact of current training, instructional design makes sure the learning connects to the work people actually do. We build learning materials, courses, and experiences that are aligned with strategic goals and rooted in adult learning principles.

Our design philosophy is grounded in clarity, application, and relevance. Every program is structured to help learners understand the "why," practice the "how," and apply the learning in real-world contexts. We focus on plain language, interactive formats, and accessible materials that respect learners' time and experience. The goal is always the same: to equip people with the knowledge and skills they need to do their work with confidence and clarity.

A collaborative and consultative approach

The most effective learning programs are developed with the people who know the work. By involving you at every stage, we make sure programs are not only well-structured and effective but meaningful and relevant to your context.

Co-creation of learning experiences

From the start, we work closely with you to align content with organizational goals. Through brainstorming and planning sessions, we refine key learning objectives and instructional approaches, adapting materials to incorporate industry-specific language, real-world applications, and scenarios that reflect learners' actual work environments.

Continual development process

Collaboration continues throughout development with regular feedback loops that allow for continuous refinement, so each component reflects your vision, values, and intended outcomes.

Flexible collaboration

We maintain open communication to align expectations and timelines, and offer flexible models, from one-time content reviews to end-to-end program development.

What this can include

  • Learning materials, courses, and full programs designed around the work people actually do
  • Plain language, interactive formats, and accessible materials built on adult learning principles
  • Structured subject matter expert interviews, working meetings, and feedback loops that keep content accurate and relevant
  • Engagement scaled to what you need, from a single content review to an end-to-end build
  • Something ready to run. A course, a curriculum, a redesigned program aligned to your goals.

Who it's for

Organizations with something to teach and a real need for people to be able to do it afterward. If you have the content knowledge, or the mandate, but not the time or the instructional design expertise to turn it into a program that holds up, this is built for that.

The Eclectic difference

Much of what organizations need to teach is dense: regulation, technical process, policy that has been amended six times. We are writers and editors as well as designers, so making complicated material clear is the core skill, not an afterthought. Plain language, accessible formats, and structure that respects what learners already know.
