Storytelling for Learning Designers

Transform Boring Training Into Unforgettable Learning Experiences

This Course Offers A Systematic Method That Turns Any Learning Objective Into A Compelling Story Your Audience Will Actually Remember.

Are you tired of watching learners’ eyes glaze over during your training sessions?

If you’re a learning designer, corporate trainer, or educator who’s struggled to make your content stick, you know that storytelling is a powerful, underrated learning tool. But when you sit down to design a story, do you often get stuck on what to work on? Do you get overwhelmed by possibilities and think your way into creative paralysis? Are you struggling to engage your audience and get them to care? If you want a design process that writes stories that are emotionally engaging, relevant to your training, and actually stick with your audience so that they take action, we have a solution!. Research shows that people forget 90% of what they learn within a week unless it’s presented in a memorable way.

The problem isn’t your expertise – it’s your development process.

What If You Could Make Every Training Session As Engaging As A Netflix Series?

Introducing Storytelling for Learning Designers – the only systematic framework that transforms dry, forgettable training content into powerful narratives that drive real behavior change.

This isn’t about adding random anecdotes to your presentations. This is about architecting stories that prove your learning objectives through emotional engagement.

“The Core Premise” – A Revolutionary Method

At the heart of this course is the Core Premise – a time-tested framework that follows this simple structure:

MORAL TRAIT → CONFLICT → CONCLUSION

Every great story that teaches follows this pattern, from ancient fables to modern corporate case studies. Now you’ll master it in just a few hours.

Problems This Course Solves:

• Boring presentations – Your systematic approach transforms dry training content into engaging narratives
• Lack of engagement – The Core Premise methodology ensures emotional connection with learners
• Information overload – Your framework helps simplify complex concepts through story metaphors
• Inconsistent messaging – The structured approach ensures coherent, focused storytelling
• Poor storytelling structure – Your clear plot development process (Normal World → Inciting Event → Tipping Point → Test → Conclusion) provides solid structure
• Audience mismatch – The workbook emphasizes understanding learner motivations and needs
• Time constraints – Your systematic framework allows for efficient story creation
• Measuring impact – The Core Premise focus ensures stories have clear learning objectives and measurable outcomes
