Professional learning that works after you've left the room.
Designing professional learning for hundreds or thousands of educators requires more than good content. It requires a structure that holds, a team that can deliver it, and resources that keep working long after the project ends.
Talk through your project 15 minutes. No pitch. Just a useful conversation.
Why most system-level professional learning doesn't work.
One programme for every context, every role, every level of experience. People disengage because it doesn't speak to them, and disengaged learners don't change their practice.
A great day of learning followed by nothing. No structure for implementation, no tools, no sustained support. The impact disappears by the following term.
Built around a facilitator being in the room. Expensive to repeat, impossible to standardise, and entirely dependent on one person staying available.
Content gets delivered but nobody builds the tools, resources, and structures that help people apply what they've learned when they're back in their school.
Three ways to work together.
Cheeky Learning works with school systems and government departments to design professional learning that is purposeful, scalable, and built to keep working long after the project ends.
Bespoke Program Design
Co-designed professional learning built around your context, your people, and your system priorities. From concept through to delivery-ready assets.
Facilitator Development
Building the capability of your internal team to design and deliver professional learning well. Not a script to read from, but genuine skill in facilitation and learning design.
SCORM and Online Delivery
SCORM-compliant modules built for your LMS, or web-based experiences that work without one. Designed to engage, not just to tick a box.
A structured, collaborative process.
Every engagement follows the same four-phase process, designed to work within the constraints of education systems and government procurement.
Scope and alignment
Confirm outcomes, audience, constraints, timelines, and success measures. Review existing materials. Set up simple ways to collaborate.
Co-design and structure
Map the learner journey and agree on structure, sequencing, and activity types. This creates clarity before anything is built.
Design and build
Develop the course experience end to end, combining learning design, visual design, and production. Everything consistent and aligned to your standards.
Delivery and support
Accessibility checks, SCORM delivery, and ongoing support across the delivery year so the programme keeps working as real cohorts move through it.
What this looks like in practice.
Middle Leadership Development
A train-the-trainer program designed with middle leaders from across the system. Facilitator guides, slide decks, and video embedded directly into the materials. Built for internal teams to own and deliver independently.
Teacher Mentoring Programme
A state-wide teacher mentoring programme co-designed at system level. Handbook, facilitator guide, and slide deck built for a train-the-trainer rollout. Regarded internally as a flagship programme.
Principal Induction Programme
A four-phase induction journey across the school year, paired with facilitator upskilling for the School Improvement team. Designed to replace an ad hoc process with something consistent, engaging, and easy to deliver at scale.
Glenn Solomons
I spent the first part of my career inside schools, as a teacher and then as a school leader. That led to consulting, designing and delivering leadership development programmes across Australia, including with the Tasmanian Department of Education. As lead facilitator and learning designer with EC by Go1, I worked with thousands of teachers and school leaders annually.
I've supported more than 50 organisations to design professional learning at scale. Named clients include Catholic Schools NSW, the University of Sydney, the Tasmanian Department of Education, and ACRE.
The question I bring to every engagement is the same: what needs to be true for this to keep working when I'm not in the room?Work with Glenn
Frequently asked questions.
Most school systems and government departments work through a scoping conversation first, followed by a written proposal. I'm experienced with government procurement processes and can provide quotes, scope documents, and formal proposals in whatever format your organisation requires.
Neither. I work alongside internal teams, drawing on the content knowledge they already hold and building their capacity to deliver and own the programme over time. The goal is always that your team ends up stronger, not dependent on me to keep things running.
Co-design and build phases typically run eight to twelve weeks, depending on the scope and number of modules. Facilitator upskilling can often run alongside the build. A firm timeline is confirmed once scope is agreed, usually after the initial scoping conversation.
Yes. SCORM-compliant modules are a core part of the offering, built for LMS platforms including Moodle, Canvas, and others. I can also build web-based experiences that work without an LMS if that better suits your delivery context.
That's a good starting point. Most systems have existing materials, frameworks, and subject matter expertise that form the foundation of the design work. The co-design process is specifically built to draw on what your people already know rather than starting from scratch.
Book a 15-minute call using the calendar below. We'll talk through your context, what you're trying to achieve, and whether there's a fit. If it makes sense to go further, I'll prepare a scoping document and a proposal from there.
The only learning designer who builds your team's capability, not just your content.
We help education systems and government bodies design professional learning that is specific, scalable, and built to last long after the project ends.
