Learning Design

Design engaging, outcomes-aligned courses that reflect your institution’s voice.

Designing a great course shouldn’t be a solo effort—or a burden. We partner closely with your faculty to bring their ideas to life, providing hands-on support, proven frameworks, and the right tools at the right time. Our goal is to make the course development process as smooth and efficient as possible—so faculty can focus on what matters most: teaching, mentoring, and research.


Every course we help build is grounded in nationally recognized standards like Quality Matters and OSCQR with our proprietary EPIIIC framework. The result? Academically rigorous, inclusive, and easy-to-navigate courses tailored to the evolving needs of today’s learners—and created in a way that respects the real-world demands on your faculty’s time.

What is EPIIIC?

This six-part framework defines the core qualities that drive stronger learning experiences—both for learners and faculty:

  • Engaging – Sparks curiosity and active participation
  • Personalized – Meets learners where they are
  • Interactive – Encourages collaboration and exploration
  • Inclusive – Reflects diverse learners and perspectives
  • Intuitive – Easy to navigate, clear to follow
  • Collaborative – Strengthens peer and faculty connections

Instructional Support

Set instructors up for success—before, during, and after each term.

We provide wraparound support to help faculty deliver consistent, high-impact learning across every course.

  • Term Prep – Section updates to reflect specific schedules and instructors
  • Ongoing Maintenance – Support for assessment and flow refinements
  • Course Refresh – Keeps content inclusive, current, and effective

Topical Workshops
Faculty bring the expertise—we help amplify it with practical tools and proven strategies. Our 90-minute workshops (virtual or on campus) focus on designing accessible, engaging, and academically rigorous online learning.

Immediate takeaways apply to fully online, hybrid, and in-person modalities.
