Tom Griffin

In 2008, after working as a Personal Trainer, I transitioned into education and training – I began training the trainers! I quickly discovered a love for teaching, so to hone my craft and better understand how my students learned, I went to college and gained my teaching qualifications.

After 6 years of teaching in a variety of settings, I became the manager of a learning support team. Here I learned about the challenges students face when studying independently and the importance of providing the right support for the individual.

I then moved into curriculum management. I was responsible for evolving the curriculum in line with industry changes, learner feedback, and advances in education technology. I had to provide tutors, QA's and internal staff with training and support to ensure the delivery of high-quality study programmes.

Then in 2018, I transitioned into the world of digital learning. I joined a qualification development team at a well-established Awarding Organisation. Here I oversaw the end-to-end development of eLearning courses and other digital resources.

In 2020 I started Tom Griffin Learning Design. Whilst I specialise in creating eLearning for formal education and training, I can help develop resources across any sector.

So there you go, that’s a brief overview of my career to date. I love education and understand the value of good learning experiences, and that's why I love doing what I do!
