Organisations that set the benchmark invest in learning strategy before development.
Get expert advice, a draft course plan, and a tailored proposal in one powerful 60-minute strategy session.
We’ll surface hidden risks and prevent unnecessary rework, ensuring your build proceeds with clarity and confidence from the very start.
Together, we will explore:
This will outline:
You will receive a bespoke course development proposal from Oppida, outlining considered engagement options aligned to your ambition, timeline and investment.
You want to turn in-person or webinar delivery into a digital course
You are planning a self-paced or blended program for adult learners
You have built something, but it needs stronger design
You are scoping a course and need a clear starting point
You want expert clarity before committing to a build
You are considering an LMS change and need to understand the implications
If budget is tight, it can feel like an optional extra. In practice, strategy protects your investment. Clear scope, aligned outcomes and defined parameters prevent expensive rework, shifting expectations and late-stage redesign. It keeps your build focused and your budget intact.
When a build starts without a shared plan, delays show up later as rework: clarifying decisions mid-build, revisiting scope, reshaping content, or untangling platform constraints. Those cycles are what slow projects down.
A focused strategy phase protects momentum. It aligns stakeholders early, defines success and scope clearly, confirms audience and delivery requirements, and surfaces technical or compliance considerations before they become blockers. The result is a smoother build with fewer detours, faster decisions, and far less backtracking.
It may be. But even simple programs carry hidden dependencies such as audience assumptions, platform constraints, compliance considerations or stakeholder expectations. We surface complexity early so development stays smooth and defensible.
Our strategy phase is structured, efficient and grounded in outcomes that matter. You will have clear milestones with defined deliverables and timelines, with shared visibility at every stage, so you always understand what is happening, when it is happening, and why it matters.
Speed without clarity introduces unnecessary risk. We balance urgency with thoughtful planning, ensuring your program launches on time and performs exactly as it should.
One course, on its own, rarely addresses complex training, learning or capability challenges.
Balancing learner needs with organisational priorities, budgets, timelines, technology choices and strategic objectives requires more than content creation. It requires deliberate program design.
As Abraham Lincoln famously said:
The same principle holds true in learning. The strength of the outcome depends on the preparation.
Our strategic program design phase ensures the foundations are clear, aligned and purposeful, so when development begins, it progresses with focus rather than friction.
