FAQs
We live in the age of digital transformation, with the number and size of digital projects growing rapidly. Building a successful team that is adept at working together is critical in order to see digital projects successfully ‘lift off’.
Solid project management can help ensure that your team not only learns how to work well together, but that they also increase efficiency and productive workflow for future projects.
Bringing digital projects to life can mean different things to different teams depending on their end goal. Digital Project Management is essentially about getting things done in the digital world. The way that this is brought to life typically involves planning, delegating, tracking, reviewing, and measuring results — often all done using project management software. Some examples of real-world digital projects are:
- Organisational/team digital transformation projects
- New software assessment or implementation
- Software and mobile development
- Website design and creation
- UX/UI design and build
- Digital marketing campaigns

What our clients say
“Academy Xi is my learning partner not my learning provider”
Clare Di Leva
Talent and Development Leader
In my former role as Head of Learning and Development at QBE Insurance, I partnered with Academy Xi to support the business to invest in reskilling for the future. Academy Xi is my learning partner not my learning provider. They bring expertise, knowledge and skilled facilitators and then collaborate to ensure solutions resonate and feel like internal offerings as opposed to off the shelf external products. Today, I value having the Academy Xi team in my network and look forward to continuing to work with them.
“The training was a tailored experience, to ensure that all team members would get something out of it, and felt engaged”
Mary-Clare Monslave
Our team came to Academy Xi for some group training in UX & Service Design. The purpose of this training was to help establish common practices and outputs for the team. The training was a tailored experience, to ensure that all team members would get something out of it, and felt engaged.
It was a great team building exercise, and really helped us agree on methodology - which in turn helped us have a common approach within the workplace - which helped enormously in streamlining our approach.
“a level of learning and enjoyment rarely seen”
Natalie Falzon
Innovation Manager
Academy Xi bring an energy and passion to education that creates a level of learning and enjoyment rarely seen. They played an integral role in our Tech4Good Challenge Program - providing instructions, content development and class management to train our non-profit partners in Service Design, Product Management and User Experience Design. I would highly recommend Academy Xi as a training and development partner if you are looking for an industry-leading experience.
“great team building exercise”
Rabbani Karim
Assistant Director
The Intro to Human-Centred Design course was a great team building exercise. A lot of interesting concepts were covered. My team also got the opportunity to collaborate with participants from other divisions on problems specific to our organisation (as opposed to hypothetical problems). Every participant got something useful out of the day.
