Who We Help:

Whether you’re leading a flagship research institution or a regional college with limited resources, we tailor our methods to fit your unique context—ensuring every initiative is both scalable and sustainable.

Our work spans rural campuses and urban universities alike, with solutions that address the nuanced challenges of diverse student populations.

Institutions partner with us not only to solve immediate academic concerns, but to cultivate long-term cultures of learning, reflection, and measurable improvement.

We’ve supported teams navigating accreditation cycles, curriculum redesigns, and large-scale change efforts—all grounded in practical tools and human-centered insight.

Leonard Geddes has brought his knowledge, enthusiasm, and ‘practical tools’ to our first-year experience to FL Poly, and the impact has been positive for both students and faculty. As a relatively new all-STEM university, the program he designed for us has given us the boost we needed to get everyone – faculty, ‘out of class’ support services, and students – on the same page with the clear, well-focused materials and a consistent message that facilitates the dialogue with respect to the university learning experience and actions for academic success. His experience and insights into student learning behaviors, coupled with his ability to recommend a practical ‘plan of action’ has created positive change in the classroom with faculty, the students, and our university culture.
It’s been two years since I last worked with The LearnWell Projects, and the work is still having an impact on our campus. The development of our Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) was informed and enhanced by The LearnWell Projects and my colleagues and I are more effective educators as a result of the work.
The metacognitive tools students have helped students exhibit greater control over how they study and their learning process.
