Learning Experience Design - PowerUp

PowerUp was an educational start-up by Reece. Aiming to create learning specifically for a trade audience to support growth and development in the industry. As a Learning Experience Designer, Product Owner, and User Research Lead I created various learning modules and visual applications. Below is a selection of my work for both internal and external audiences over that time.

In this start-up environment, my diverse skill set and experience were heavily utilised. The team had Human Centred Design practices in place but no process for testing designs with users and iterating. I implemented this process, trained the team, recruited users into our testing group and supervised the user test creation, implementation and data analysis. I also lead a project to gather our user results and communicate them to the wider PowerUp cohort.

I also owned the Wellness product range, including designing, managing and running a virtual learning event Well Up with Wayne Schwass, and creating a Learning Experience Design for an online course that aimed to teach Tradespeople about the benefits of Gratitude, Empathy and Mindfulness for developing Resilience and Wellbeing. This product was tricky as our research indicated Tradespeople needed wellness content the most out of our product range (due to high levels of stress, mental illness, and burnout in the industry) but concurrently, they were the most resistant to this content. Therefore my learning designs needed to convince as well as teach the audience.
