About us

Workplace norms have dramatically changed. We thought training should too.

Our story

Once upon a time, we asked a bunch of people whether they'd learned something from their annual harassment training. Everyone laughed. Then we asked academics whether there was any research to suggest traditional training works. Again, everyone laughed. So we pulled together a team and made a training that's effective and engaging.
