Philosophy
Built on evidence, not engagement tricks.
Every design decision comes from the learning-science literature — retrieval practice, spaced review, scenario-based transfer — and the gimmicks the research says don't work were left out on purpose.
Modules of 6–10 minutes
One idea per module, honest time estimates, stop-and-resume anywhere. Your progress saves automatically.
Retrieval, not re-reading
Quick checks with instant plain-English feedback — the single best-evidenced way to make things stick.
Spaced review built in
Checkpoints reach back to earlier modules; optional calendar nudges bring you back before it fades.
Nothing gamified
No points, badges, streaks, or leaderboards. The evidence for them is weak; the annoyance is well documented.
The courses
One live. More on the bench.
Every course runs on the same engine — the content changes, the learning mechanics don't.
The AI Crash Course
Understand AI well enough to use it at work. Prompting that works, what's safe to paste (and what never is), catching confident nonsense, and the ecosystem beyond the chat box — Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, tool-agnostic throughout.
Start the course →CDMP Prep
Data management certification prep, rebuilt on this engine — the DMBOK, minus the sensation of reading the DMBOK.
LSAT Prep
Logical reasoning and reading comp as short, spaced drills — the no-panic version of studying for it.
Real preview
Try a 20-second sample.
This is a real skill check from the AI course — same component, same instant feedback.
How every course works
The loop that makes it stick.
Five steps, borrowed from the research on how adults actually retain things.

Checkpoints
Spaced reviews that reach back — that's the trick.
Prove it
A final assessment with a per-module breakdown.
Keep it

Who's behind this
Built by someone who did it the hard way first.
Custom learning design
Want one of these for your team?
These courses run on a reusable, evidence-based engine — swap the content, keep the learning science. If your team needs training that people actually finish, let's talk.
Get in touch →FAQ
Questions you'd reasonably ask.
What does it cost?
Nothing. No account, no email, no "premium tier," no upsell waiting at the end.
How long do the courses take?
The AI course is about 25 minutes on the casual lane, about 60 on the deep dive. Modules are 6–10 minutes each and progress saves automatically, so stopping mid-module costs you nothing.
Do I need an account?
No. Everything works without one. There's an optional Google sign-in if you want your progress to follow you across devices — it stores only your course progress.
What happens to my data?
Visits are counted anonymously — no cookies, nothing personal. Your progress lives in your browser unless you opt into sync.
Which AI tool does the AI course recommend?
None. It's deliberately tool-agnostic — the prompting, data-safety, and verification skills transfer across Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, Gemini, and whatever ships next quarter.
Twenty-five minutes. Zero hype.
Seven short modules, and you can stop whenever you like.
