Freelance Instructional Designer
I'm a UK-based freelance instructional designer helping organisations turn complex information, subject matter expertise and business goals into practical learning experiences that improve performance.
Working remotely across the UK and internationally, I support L&D teams, HR teams, training providers and digital learning agencies when additional instructional design capacity is needed.
Whether you're creating a new programme, redesigning existing content, or developing learning as part of a wider transformation initiative, I can step in quickly to help structure, design and deliver effective learning solutions.
My trusted colleagues and I can provide short-term fractional support on an hourly, daily, weekly or monthly basis, the flexible support you need when you need it!
What this support includes
- Learning needs analysis and audience analysis
- Instructional design for classroom, virtual and blended programmes
- Converting SME expertise into structured learning experiences
- Designing learning journeys and curriculum pathways
- Storyboarding digital learning and eLearning modules
- Performance-focused learning objectives and outcomes
- Assessment and knowledge-check design
- Content reviews, redesigns and learning modernisation projects
Example instructional design support
Supporting the redesign of a multi-module learning programme where technical subject matter expertise existed but content needed to be restructured into a coherent learner journey.
This included defining learning outcomes, designing module flow, creating assessments, structuring blended delivery and producing storyboards ready for facilitator-led and digital learning development.
How this support works in practice
Instructional design support can be introduced at any stage of a project, from early discovery and learning needs analysis through to content restructuring, storyboarding and delivery design.
Support can be provided as a standalone instructional designer, embedded within an existing team, or working alongside learning designers, facilitators and digital learning developers.
Work aligns with existing project processes, governance and delivery timelines, allowing additional capability to be introduced quickly without disrupting ongoing programmes.
Who this is for
- L&D teams designing new learning programmes
- Organisations introducing large-scale change initiatives
- Training providers developing new courses and qualifications
- Digital learning agencies requiring instructional design expertise
- Teams with SME knowledge but limited instructional design capacity
