Every engagement runs through the same five stages. The depth of each stage changes with the project; the order does not.
Stage 1 — Project review
Clarify the audience, performance need, source material, constraints, deadline, and definition of done.
Stage 2 — Learning architecture
Define objectives, modality, curriculum, assessment, storyboard, dependencies, and approval points.
Stage 3 — Prototype
Validate the visual, instructional, interaction, and accessibility direction before scaling production.
Stage 4 — Production
Build the approved learning assets, manage reviews, and control change.
Stage 5 — QA and handoff
Test content and behavior, package files, document maintenance, and support launch.
