Please note change of DAY for this 2 part series
This two-part webinar explores how to design learning experiences that work for more brains, bodies, and backgrounds. It’s a practical, human, and interactive version of my Inclusive by Design session from the Tahu Ignite NZATD Conference 2025.
Part 1 introduces key principles of inclusive design and shows how small design choices can transform participation, confidence, and belonging.
Part 2 will dive deeper into the topic chosen by participants in Part 1 — options may include neurodiversity and learning, the psychology of engagement, psychological safety, designing for cognitive load and accessibility, or whatever topic would be more impactful for participants.
Outcomes:
Participants will leave with practical tools, a deeper understanding of inclusive learning design, and ideas they can immediately apply in their own context.
Competency Framework: Adult Learning Principles; Learning and Development Practice; Instructional Design; Facilitation; Learning Strategist
Session Theme and Audience: Future ways of working
Speaker: Marc Jacquemin
Marc is a Learning Architect at HappyMind, where he designs and delivers learning experiences that feel more human, curious, and hands-on. His work blends psychology, storytelling, and smart design to help people connect, collaborate, and grow.
He’s passionate about creating spaces where learning feels safe, challenging, and a little bit playful. As a proudly neurodivergent facilitator, Marc brings lived experience and deep empathy to his work on inclusion, helping teams understand and celebrate the different ways people think and learn.
Originally from Mexico City with Belgian roots, Marc’s path has taken him through London to Auckland, where he now lives with his partner and two rescue greyhounds. When he’s not designing workshops, he’s usually kayaking, hiking, or exploring new ways to make learning more inclusive and meaningful.
