Oppida was instrumental in ANZSOG’s successful pivot to online learning, necessitated by the global pandemic in 2019. Through Oppida’s partnership with ANZSOG, we have been able to redesign every subject to ensure a highly interactive, engaging and contemporary experience for learners. We have particularly valued the responsiveness and support that Oppida has provided our organisation. Through their partnership, our staff have been empowered to grow in capability and understanding of blended and online learning, to the point where we are confident operators in this space.

Oppida were a game changer for our organisation. They guided us through change and delivered us to a new outlook, one which places EEV in a position we’ve never been in before: to have the ability to deliver online resources. This has made us, for the first time in our 40-year history, truly connected to our members across all parts of Victoria. Oppida made this happen because they have talented people, a “change is achievable” mindset and the ability to take people on the journey.

Through our experiences with using Canvas as an LMS to support our face-to-face training, we sought feedback from students and trainers to identify opportunities for improvement in the products that we had created. We engaged Oppida to help us with this project and they were able to accurately interpret this feedback in order to address some challenges our stakeholders were experiencing. They did this in a timely manner and the end result has been a much improved learning experience for both learners and trainers.

Oppida’s team of specialists helped Climate for Change develop an online learning platform for our Facilitator training program, which equips more than 150 volunteers each year with the skills and resources they need to facilitate hundreds of Climate Conversations throughout Australia. The end result is a comprehensive training program that allows new volunteers to dive in straight away and frees our staff up to support their learning journey in more meaningful ways. We’re very grateful for the generosity of spirit and depth of expertise shown by the Oppida team in this project.
