Beyond Normal Learning

Using ADDIE principles, we transform education into an experience that is responsive, relevant, and engaging for today’s learners.


Beyond Normal Exposure designs curriculum, workshops, and learning environments for schools, universities, nonprofits, and youth-serving organizations. These experiences integrate culture, identity, real-world application, and social-emotional learning to increase engagement and outcomes.


Learning experiences reinforce coaching outcomes, provide skill development for career pathways, and supply structure for community events and travel-based learning.

LEARNING DESIGN CORE STRUCTURE

We design learning frameworks that help organizations adapt to change, develop inclusive leadership, and build future-ready talent ecosystems.

How learning works here:

  • Systems thinking

  • Scenario-based learning

  • Leadership practice labs

  • Learning architecture design (not just training)

    • What skills or capabilities are missing?

    • Who are we actually serving?

    • Where are learners getting stuck?

    Deliverables might include:

    • Stakeholder interviews

    • Learner surveys

    • Insight summary + design recommendations

  • You evaluate:

    • Effectiveness of learning experiences

    • Alignment between goals, activities, and outcomes

    • Participant experience and outcomes
