Keeping up with the workload can be tough
Do these sound familiar?
-
Increasing workload with the same team is leading to burnout and missed deadlines.
-
Full-time hires or agencies aren’t an option.
-
Critical skill gaps are slowing down progress.
-
Sourcing, interviewing, and hiring talent is pulling focus away from core work
-
It’s hard to make a confident decision without the specialized skills to assess the right candidate. A bad hire costs both time and money that can't be spared.
You are not alone…
62% of L&D managers say their teams are understaffed to meet demand
76% would prioritise hiring a Designer when expanding their team
Created by Learning Designers, we understand what goes beyond content
We know that exceptional digital learning isn’t just about building modules, but about combining learning science, UX, storytelling, interaction design, and creativity.
After years of creating these experiences ourselves, we know how to find designers who bring that same mindset to your team.
Since 2021 we’ve helped learning teams to:
Engage 2M+ learners
Deliver bespoke learning in 180+ countries
Raise satisfaction scores to 96%

When the right designer makes all the difference
“Working with Efectivi Learning since 2023 has been a cornerstone of the success of our 'Everyday Digital & AI' program. From the outset, they understood our vision, specifically by matching us with Florina. As our dedicated learning consultant, Florina has been instrumental in translating AI concepts into practical, everyday wins for our teams.
Together, we’ve built more than just a training curriculum; we’ve established a robust learning foundation that empowers Nestlé employees to embrace AI as a productivity partner. Efectivi Learning’s agility, combined with Florina’s expertise and commitment, has allowed us to remain at the leading edge of digital transformation.
The impact of this partnership speaks for itself.We are incredibly proud to have received two prestigious internal awards: one from our CIO and another from the Head of Corporate L&D, recognizing the program’s excellence and its contribution to the organization. I deeply value Efectivi Learning’s flexibility and the genuine spirit of partnership they, and Florina especially, bring to every challenge.”
— Alexandra, IT Product Owner, Nestlé
“My experience with Efectivi Learning has been one of the smoothest and most positive project placements I’ve had as a freelancer. From the moment I applied, everything moved quickly and with clear communication. Within a few days I had interviewed with Efectivi and the client, and the role on Nestlé’s Everyday Digital & AI program was confirmed directly at the end of the final call.
What stood out most was how accurately Efectivi matched my profile with the needs of the project. They clearly understood the scope, the stakeholder expectations, and the type of expertise required, and positioned me in a way that allowed me to step into the work confidently from day one.
Working with Alexandra at Nestlé was also a key part of the experience. She consistently treated me as the expert in the equation, giving me both the freedom to lead where needed and the support to collaborate effectively.
Seeing the impact of the work recognised through internal awards has been especially rewarding, and it’s a great reflection of the strength of the partnership Efectivi builds between clients and freelance talent.

The people behind every great match
Emilia Dudziak | Founder
A Digital Learning Designer with 8+ years of experience crafting bespoke eLearning solutions for companies like:
I’ve been in digital learning since 2017. The more I worked, the more frustrated I became with the standard, cookie-cutter templates everyone was using.
I quickly realised that eLearning is stuck in a rut.
I worked overtime, learning how to combine UX design and visual communication to make training that worked for people, not against them.
I started Efectivi to bring the same high-impact learning I delivered in-house, to global teams—creating learning that feels personal, inspiring, and drives action.
Pedro Eguidazu | Co-Founder
A product and operations leader with 10+ years of experience driving large-scale digital learning products and operational efficiency programs at global companies like:
My path here wasn't typical L&D. Coming from Ops & Product, I was an end-user first (and not a happy one).
I suffered through hours of eLearning that felt like a sermon or simply irrelevant.
But I also saw the potential. I led a program where training helped drive $2.1M in savings.
The learning team never asked about the impact. They delivered the course; I was the one tracking the results.
At Efectivi, I help organisations create and scale learning products that go beyond education, with clear metrics to demonstrate ROI.
Chosen by leaders raising the bar for learning
“The cyber security e-learning was a great success; over 80% of the employees completed it on time. The feedback received was really good. Thanks a lot for your hard work and patience during the creation process.”
— Susana, Global Talent Development Director, Adevinta
“I've utilised Emilia and the team on a number of projects. Very good for creating eLearning that is not just your usual 'click next' and they have a good specialty in being able to conceptualize interesting methods of presenting information to engage learners.”
— John, Senior Learning Consultant, Jam Pan
“Working with Emilia feels great! I love the level of attention she pays to details and her expertise in the learning field. We started collaborating in April 2022, when she provided the right professional for our learning team in Nestle IT. I appreciate her support and ideas to improve the work we are doing with every new project.
I greatly recommend her services as she genuinely cares about producing the best results and doing learning the right way. I enjoy our conversations about making learning valuable by putting the learners first. Looking forward to see her company grow bigger and stronger!”
— Alexandra, IT Product Owner, Nestlé
“I was really impressed with Emilia’s focus on user experience and the desire to put quality before profit. It has reconfirmed my thoughts on so many people in learning - that we are a service-driven industry that truly helps people and companies.”
—Edmund, CEO, Learning and Performance Institute (LPI)
