Needs analysis
Performance gaps, audience research, and the honest answer about whether training is even the right fix.
IDOL Talent
We train instructional designers. Then we place them.
We are the instructional design educators and the people who staff your projects. Every contractor we send came through our own school, built a portfolio we evaluated, and was hand-selected by Dr. Robin Sargent. You are not getting a résumé from a database. You are getting someone we taught.
30 minutes. Come with a rough idea and a timeline. You will leave knowing whether we are a fit.
The work does not pause while you hire.
Filling a learning role takes months. The compliance course still has a deadline. The onboarding redesign still has a launch date. The new product still needs enablement built before sales can sell it.
You do not always need a headcount.
Sometimes you need the thing built, by someone who has built it before, starting this month.
That is what IDOL Talent is for. We take the project, put the right people on it, and hand you finished work. No req to approve. No six-week interview loop. No onboarding a full-time hire for a deliverable that ends in ten weeks.
When you do want someone embedded with your team for a stretch, we do that too. The difference is that we already know the person, we have seen their portfolio, and we stay accountable for the outcome.

How it works
1
Tell us the project
A 30-minute call. What needs building, when it is due, and who else has to sign off. Bring a scope document if you have one.
2
We scope and staff it
You get a written scope with deliverables, a timeline, and a fixed number. We select the people and stand behind the work.
3
You get finished work
A named lead owns delivery and communication. You review at agreed checkpoints instead of managing a contractor day to day.
The school and the staffing are the same operation.
Most agencies meet a candidate for the first time when they need to fill a seat. We met ours on day one of a program we built. We know how they were taught, what they were graded on, and what they can actually produce, because we watched them produce it.
IDOL Academy is a state-authorized career school. Graduates do not finish on a quiz score. They finish by building a portfolio of real instructional design work that gets evaluated before they leave. That evaluation is the same one we use to decide who goes on your project.

What is on your list that has not moved in a month?
Bring it to a 30-minute call. We will tell you what it would take, who we would put on it, and whether we are the right fit. If we are not, we will say so on the call rather than sell you something.
