Online learning that's unique and innovative
Our courses are unique and our learning model is inspired by the world's most innovative and successful schools. In recognition of this we were selected by the UK's innovation think tank Nesta, along with the Department of Education, to explore how the way we teach could transform the world of adult learning for everyone.
Why us?
Community
Social learning
We use social learning in a powerful way which is one of the reasons we have far higher completion rates than the average online course. We are passionate about women supporting women (and occasionally men too).
Skills
Learn by doing
Humans learn best by doing. Our courses set real practical challenges at the start of all our courses, scaffolding the learning around these challenges. Global learning experts recognise this as the most powerful way to learn. knowledge.
Confidence
Empowerment
Everything we do is designed to boost confidence. Our goal is to lift you up as well as teach you new things. This means tough love when you need to be pushed out of your comfort zone but nurture and support when you need it.
Flexibility
For busy people
We know a lot about the demands of parenting and have designed flexible learning experiences with bite-sized lessons in accessible formats. Listen to audio lessons over lunch or watch short videos while waiting to pick the kids up.
