Upskilling Courses for Teams
Academy Xi empowers teams of all sizes to adapt their traditional ways of working. In today’s digital and data-driven economy, it is important that your people are along for the journey. Held over one or two days, these Upskilling Workshops can be delivered either in-person or online and provide the perfect backdrop for team building and individual employee development. They have been designed to give teams the necessary skills to embrace change and move forward in a future of work that is already here.

Digital credential for every learner
Each learner within your team will receive a digital credential. Digital credentials are a graphical representation of the learner’s new skills, combined with a description of the knowledge and activities it took them to earn it.
Digital badges can be used in email signatures or digital resumes, and on your learner’s LinkedIn profile.
Takeaway toolkit to embed learnings
Struggled to embed learnings from past training sessions into your team’s day-to-day workflow? We hear that this is a common pain-point.
Upon completing an Academy Xi Intro Course, each learner will receive their own toolkit designed to help them easily draw on. These toolkits include practical exercises, scenarios, frameworks and devices to support continued use.

You can use these courses as a way to give a specific team certain skills or you can use them as a way to bring together specific people from across the business. They are an excellent opportunity for team-building, skills development and as a way to embed a shared language.
Who we've worked with
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.
