Case Study
Laing O'Rourke + Mindsmith
How Laing O'Rourke empowered its frontline teams to create professional training content in days — not weeks — without overloading L&D.

Challenge
When business moves fast, training must keep up
With a large, distributed workforce and a relatively small Learning & Development team, Laing O'Rourke Australia needed a solution that would empower frontline teams to create scalable, professional learning content without relying on instructional designers for every course. Traditional development methods were too slow and resource-intensive for the pace of the business.

Solution
Scaling learning from the edge
Laing O'Rourke introduced Mindsmith to its network of Learning Ambassadors and subject matter experts (SMEs), allowing team members across the business to create and deploy engaging eLearning quickly and effectively. Mindsmith's ease of use and AI assistance enabled content creation to scale beyond the core L&D team.

Results

eLearning development time dropped from 4 weeks to just a couple of days, achieving around a 10x increase in efficiency.
Democratized learning creation
