About

Digital learning, designed and built — with three decades of foundation.

LearnFrame is a Dublin-based digital learning team serving professional certification bodies, regulated training providers, corporate academies, and other content-rich organisations across Ireland, the United Kingdom, and Europe.

What LearnFrame does

End-to-end design and production of digital learning programmes.

LearnFrame designs and builds custom eLearning programmes for certification bodies, regulated training providers, corporate academies, and other content-rich organisations. Strategic and creative direction sit in Dublin. Production is delivered through an established Cape Town team — instructional designers, learning designers, content developers, animators, and quality assurance specialists, working under integrated direction.

Every engagement begins with a discovery and scoping phase. This is the basis on which the work can be scoped credibly and clients can commit to the next phase with confidence. The model has been built deliberately around this structure since LearnFrame was founded in 2021.

How LearnFrame works

Four principles that shape every engagement.

Experienced throughout

Engagements are led by practitioners with substantive operating experience in digital learning. Junior delivery is supported by strategic direction at every milestone.

Diagnosis before delivery

Every engagement begins with a discovery and scoping phase. The work that follows is built on a written diagnosis, not a sales conversation.

Integrated direction and production

Strategy, design lead, and production sit inside the same team. Clients work with a single point of accountability, not a chain of subcontractors.

Capability transfer

Engagements are designed to wind down with the client owning the outcome. Capability, processes, and decision frameworks transfer to the internal team before exit.

The founder

Paul Robinson.

Paul Robinson founded LearnFrame in 2021. His career in digital learning began at CBT Systems in Dublin in 1994, where he was leading a content development team when the company became the first Irish technology business to IPO on Nasdaq in 1995, and the first e-learning company globally to do so.

CBT chairman Bill McCabe subsequently selected Paul to lead degree-programme development at Knowledge Well, an online higher-education venture built in partnership with Kansas State University and other US universities. The CBT founders later asked Paul to establish SourceSkills as their preferred supplier business, where over two hundred digital learning titles were produced under his direction.

He has since held leadership roles at NIIT (UK and Ireland) and Zenith Training, and most recently served as fractional Chief Product Officer at a modernising pan-European professional certification provider.
