Creating exceptional programs, building empowering communities and inspiring the world to live up to its brilliant potential.
Here at Brillianity we're dedicated to creating better programs and Communities for adult learners. We're working with businesses to improve existing programs and Communities, or to help businesses create new programs or Communities, with the ultimate goal of improving not only your impact, but your bottom line.
We're here to work with you, and your specific needs. Maybe you have a program that is not excelling. Maybe you are looking to build a program to support your business, but don't know where to start. From planning sessions, strategic mapping, or full-service course creation, we have a one-to-one option that will work for you. Customized, simple, effective.
We offer a suite of in person and online Workshops, designed to walk you through the course and community creation process. Our signature Brillianity Course Creator Masterclass features 3 days of delivery, design and community building expertise that will have you not just creating a course, but a brilliant course, supported by community. This is the program for anyone with "something to teach".
We believe in building both sides of the adult learning space - we help to create brilliant courses, and supportive communities, but we also believe in changing the narrative around learning as an adult. We believe that every human has untapped potential inside of them, and we believe that the world will be a better place when we tap into this well of potential. So if you are looking for an informative presentation on the benefits of adding a course to your lineup, a closer look into the potential of Community, or an inspiring speech to help your listeners tap into their own potential, book Brillianity to speak at your event today.
With millions of courses available to us as adults - both free and paid - global course completion rates hover at approximately 12%. This means that millions of people are wanting to learn - wanting to improve themselves - and are not getting what they need.
We're helping businesses design courses for adults that are brilliant - both in terms of delivery, and design. We focus on building great teachers, and creating content that leads to lasting results. With scientifically backed techniques, we want to help create courses that truly work, and bring about the transformations we know are possible.
... and the internet is not to blame. As humans we crave connection. Courses are not providing the space for true connection, and as a result, we're struggling to persevere with the things we love.
Brillianity is helping businesses create supportive and encouraging communities. These are places of non-judgement that help learners persevere through life situations that may otherwise derail their efforts for personal growth. We all need connection, and whether we're in person or online, we have the perfect opportunity to connect with people who hold common interests when we sign up for a course.
Professional learning is a valuable tool for progressing our careers, but our careers are not a true representation of our potential. The end game cannot just be to work, but we're struggling against societal expectations that promote "learning to work", instead of "learning to grow".
All forms of learning are valuable. In fact, the ones that promote personal transformations, help us to explore our creativity, or help us to create a better world are the most valuable forms of education we can embark on. We believe in the potential everyone holds, and are passionate about building brilliant opportunities for people to explore anything, and everything, they're interested in. Who knows where the next great ideas come from.

Is to help businesses from all backgrounds create effective courses, strengthened by supportive communities, with the ultimate goal of bringing about maximum positive impact.
Courses support businesses.
It's possible that your core business is course creation and delivery, but more likely, your business is about the provision of a service - yoga, counselling, climbing, photography, coaching, pet adoptions, consulting etc. Your main goals as a service based enterprise is the acquisition and retention of clients.
How does a course support this?
Acquiring customers is a journey of building know, like and trust. This is done by creating regular and consistent opportunities to demonstrate your expertise, and to show potential clients that you have the answer to their specific need/problem. Courses are this regular and consistent opportunity.
Retaining customers is about showing your clients that their life is measurably better with you in it, by providing a quality product, and supporting them to their success.
The best course, supported by the right community, shows your clients that they can get results with you, while enjoying the motivation of a community they would rather not live without.
Your business lives or dies by the success of your clients. Your clients already appreciate your services, but to take this to the next level, your clients will also need to understand how and why you do what you do.
The purpose of a course is to help your clients understand more about what you do so that they can gain a better appreciation for their desired transformation, and stick with it over the long term.
We'll take the Harvard Business Review on this one: "If a company can transition from simply delivering a product to building a community, they can unlock extraordinary competitive advantages and create a superior business model."
Building a Community of loyal followers is one of the most powerful tools a business can have at their disposal. But we often see Community as an 'end' - once we build a Community, we're good. Problem: Community needs a reason to exist - we need to be able to fuel the interaction and connection in our Community. Most often, we attempt to fill this space with events. But events are costly to prepare, and mostly one-off, meaning you don't have the opportunity to gain the benefits of long-term interaction.
Enter courses - courses that are supported by, and run in Community, are one of the most powerful Community building tools we have. And a Community that creates together, stays together.
