Obvious Choice

Obvious Choice provides Microlearning Solutions from its Melbourne base, building short form learning content of 1 to 5 minutes designed to fit within the flow of work rather than traditional elearning or classroom training.

• Founded in 2013, the agency built what it describes as Australia’s first Modern Learning System (MLS) in early 2015, moving clients away from conventional learning management systems.
• Its Performance Campaigns approach delivers microlearning and workplace nudges over spaced intervals, aligned to a specific business metric each month, supported by a companion coaching toolkit for supervisors.
• The agency reports 80 percent of clients undertake repeat projects and a Net Promoter Score of 65 and rising.
• Case study work includes redesigning a new starter induction and orientation program around microlearning delivered by app, aimed at reducing early tenure turnover risk.

Best for: Australian organisations wanting to replace lengthy elearning or classroom training with short, targeted content tied to specific performance metrics, including induction and onboarding redesign.

Obvious Choice offers Learning Strategy Design from Melbourne, helping organisations plan a shift from traditional learning management systems (LMS) toward a modern learning system (MLS) model.

• The service sets a roadmap for transforming learning and development functions, moving teams from an order taking role to a performance consulting one.
• Strategy work draws on the agency’s own transition, having implemented what it describes as Australia’s first Modern Learning System in early 2015.
• Consultations are positioned around named Learning and Performance Architects who work through problems and roadmap options directly with clients.

Best for: Learning and development teams planning a move away from a legacy LMS toward microlearning and performance focused delivery.
