Making learning work — for 30 years.
I've spent nearly three decades teaching instructional designers and building experiential learning programs. Two things have never changed: the human brain still drifts during long spells of passivity, and experiential design always works.
From self-paced tools to live workshops — there's something built for exactly where you are.

Founded McEachern & Associates in 1992. Taught for 25 years in St. Francis Xavier University's Diploma in Adult Education. Designed programs for organisations across Canada and the U.S., with more than 30,000 participants. Everything I build starts from one question: what does this person need to be able to do when they leave the room?
Whether you're presenting to a room of ten or designing training for hundreds — there's something built for exactly where you are.
