About Rad Learning

We build learning experiences that lead to real inclusion.

Staff training is hit or miss, it’s hard to know what will lead to real change. Rad Learning creates real learning experiences, with a report on what was learned not just what was taught.

So your staff work your way.

How do we do it?
We are excited by high impact teaching techniques, design innovation, and leveraging technology to make learning more relevant, engaging, and accessible. We've developed The Rad Learning Model to bring all of these together.

Everything that we do at Rad Learning puts learning first. We specialise in high impact teaching strategies, human-centred design, and digital technology. We are creating experiences that work for all types of learners, including those who are disabled, neurodiverse, have learning difficulties, or are from culturally and linguistically diverse communities.

Hi, I'm Ren Everett (he/they)

I've taught almost everything you can imagine. Essay writing and hidden histories. Installing car seats and toilet training toddlers. The joys and perils of gender transition. How to thrive as a neurodivergent person in a neurotypical world.

Teaching is how I connect with people, and I've been doing it my whole life. But here's what I've learned: great teaching isn't about what you know, it's about how you help. It's about creating learning experiences that are inclusive, collaborative, and send people to places they can't reach on their own.

The degree on my wall says that I’m an English and History teacher, but my passion lies at the intersection of learning and technology, so I always ask myself:

How can we use technology to lift people up, not flatten them to fit in the same cookie-cutter as everyone else?

The question is so important because the world is a scary place for those of us who will never fit the mold. I’m a proud leader in the Transgender community and a neurodivergent parent of neurodivergent youngsters.

As I pursued powerful practices for inclusion, innovation, and problem-solving, my skills outgrew the classroom. I needed to work on challenges that extended beyond the school walls.

In recent years, those challenges have only become more urgent. There are so many workplaces where wellbeing and careers are suffering from learning inaccessibility and exclusion. Technology is implemented that replicates society-wide systems of power and the harms they cause. And my kids are going to end up in those workplaces very soon.

Then I encountered the problem-solving methodologies of Human Centred Design and Product Management. These approaches are collaborative tools to turn ideas into solutions that actually work, even for those of us who have never fit before. So, I spent years developing these skills and capabilities; learning from the best in the industry then solving problems revealed by my lived experience and often invisible to others. With these tools I took Rad Learning from an intangible dream to "make workplace learning better" to a business that solves inclusion problems through learning.

Now I help for-purpose organisations solve inclusion problems and implement solutions - the kind that don't just "raise awareness" but transform how people work. My vocation is no longer cramped by cookie-cutter technology and practices that reinforce the way things have always been because I'm building the tools I need to inspire real learning. That way I know they are inclusive, accessible, and grounded in impactful teaching practices (and when I get something wrong, I can be the one who fixes it).

I don’t deliver training with multiple choice questions that check standardised boxes. I craft experiences where people learn by doing and collaborating, not listening to me talk. If your organisation needs learning that transforms how your team works on inclusion, let’s talk.
