How we work

Experia Academy designs experiential learning journeys rather than traditional training programmes. Our role is to hold the process and support participants in making sense of experience.

Our principles

  • wellbeing as the foundation for learning

  • learning through place and context

  • human-centred learning

  • lifelong learning as lived practice

Our methods
Experiential learning, guided reflection, dialogue, peer learning, and place-based approaches, often supported by movement and walking.

How learning happens

We design inspiring experiential learning environments—no content-heavy training days.

Learning happens through:

  • place and context

  • movement and walking

  • guided individual and group reflection

  • structured dialogue and peer learning

  • informal and non-formal learning approaches

Being well is part of the learning process, not added on afterwards.

Who it's for

Our learning journeys are designed for adults and organisations engaged in lifelong learning, including:

  • higher education lecturers and staff developers

  • adult educators and facilitators

  • community and organisational leaders

  • networks, associations, and member-based organisations

  • Erasmus+ and self-funded participants

Seasonality

Main learning seasons run from March to June and September to November.
July and August are not core seasons. Winter journeys are possible as slower, more reflective formats for motivated groups.
