Our team have a range of backgrounds, from occupational psychology, disability management, nursing, and lecturing, but what we all have in common is a strong passion to make a difference for the organisations we partner with. We do this through bringing the theory and evidence to life through practical, real life experience so that you can implement the tools and techniques straight away within your workplace. We go a step further than simply ‘awareness raising’ and help you to take positive action. Lisa Whittleton, Director I’ve had an interest in psychology and how we think, feel and behave since long before University, quite possibly shaped by personal experiences growing up with close family / friends affected by mental ill health. My first role after doing a master’s in occupational psychology (after a short stint in recruitment which was very much not for me) was working as a Vocational Rehabilitation Consultant with wounded, injured and sick service personnel to help them transition to a new career. This was totally inspiring and really opened my eyes to the stigmas that exist in workplaces around mental health and disability. I set up Illuminate in November 2013 as I was keen to influence this positively. At the time, we were not having the conversations we are now around mental health, so I recognise we have come a long way…but there is still a way to go to de-stigmatise completely and ensure we are being proactive around the topic so our teams can thrive at work. I love building relationships with our clients to really get to understand their world and the challenges within it to help bring about positive change. Working in this field is a constant reminder of how easy it is to slip into unhelpful habits in terms of looking after my own mental wellbeing and achieving the right ‘work-life’ balance. I do have to work hard to practice what I preach, and don’t always get it right. This is what makes my facilitation real and relatable for you. I am a people person and tend to be the listener, the support and the new perspective for many of my friends. I am all about socialising, and love music festivals and gigs, alongside what I believe is a healthy addiction to Crossfit…and my cat, Mrs Norris.

Study Academy

Study Academy is everything you’ll need for practical staff training and development. We are an experienced digital training provider covering finance & compliance, personal growth, health & safety, business skills, and health & social care. Our team delivers lessons specially tailored to your business on a personalised platform. We’ll work closely alongside you to advise suitable topics and design online training to help staff on the job. WHY WORK WITH STUDY ACADEMY? There are countless benefits to moving your training in-house. Working with an independent training body means an expensive cost since you’ll need to book refresher sessions and trainers for new staff.  Designing and developing a digital learning platform removes that pressure. All learning required from your employees is provided in one place, where you have complete control. Study Academy dedicates time and effort to understanding your business mission and ensuring that your staff learning reflects your values. You’ll no longer have to suffer stale courses with outdated scenarios. Any first aid support or business management lessons will directly consider the needs of your business. STAFF TRAINING WITH STUDY ACADEMY Our staff training solutions are second to none. We can support transitions into management, fire safety training, food handling legalities and much more. Running a business is no easy feat, and having one platform to equip all staff members provides some unity. You’ll be able to monitor who has completed which lessons, as well as when annual training needs updating. First aid, for example, is not a one time course. Staff training must be completed constantly and consistently, so an easily accessible digital platform is convenient. REGULATORY COMPLIANCE TRAINING WITH STUDY ACADEMY Regulatory compliance training is arguably the most critical for your organisation. Sessions from Study Academy ensure that employees understand the laws, regulations and policies that govern your business. Compliance lessons can cover data handling, financial law and fraud awareness. We are a digital training provider that aims to introduce the law to your staff, help them understand why the rules are in place and why they’re vital to follow. The consequences of improper training are devastating. ONBOARDING AND INDUCTION TRAINING WITH STUDY ACADEMY New members of staff have no concept of what your business values. Perhaps they have experience or qualifications in your sector, but that isn’t enough to effectively represent your business. A personalised digital training platform with Study Academy can help you and train staff in your brand voice and guidelines. With a consistent welcome session, every new employee will understand your organisation from the same level, so your team will present themselves consistently.
