Challenge
Miles Partnership had developed valuable training content for tourism businesses, but the materials lacked the engagement, structure, and interactivity needed for effective online delivery. Without a learner-focused design, these courses were underutilized and not reaching their full potential to support professional development in the tourism industry.
Results
By redesigning its online training with Learn Tourism, Miles Partnership significantly improved course engagement and learner satisfaction. The new modular, interactive courses led to higher completion rates, stronger alignment with industry needs, and laid the groundwork for scalable, future-ready professional development offerings.

Miles Partnership recognized the untapped potential in transforming their well-developed training materials into engaging, scalable online courses. While the content was strong, it lacked the interactivity and learner-centric design needed for today’s digital-first professionals. By partnering with Learn Tourism, they saw an opportunity to modernize delivery, boost engagement, and expand their educational impact across the tourism industry.
The Solution
Why They Chose Us & How They Got Started
Miles Partnership was already familiar with Learn Tourism’s reputation for effective, research-based course design in the tourism sector. While exploring ways to modernize their existing training library, they evaluated various learning management systems and instructional design providers. Ultimately, they chose Learn Tourism for its unique combination of tourism-specific expertise, ease of implementation, and a highly collaborative approach to course development.
The partnership began with a discovery phase, where our instructional design consultants analyzed the existing course assets and aligned them with clearly defined learning outcomes. Leveraging Learn Tourism’s flexible Learning Experience Platform, they took advantage of features such as modular course structure, branded design, multilingual capabilities, and built-in learner analytics. This allowed Miles to deliver a more personalized and engaging learning experience that catered to diverse audiences.
“The Learn Tourism team quickly grasped our goals and helped translate our content into something that really clicks with learners. Their process made everything feel achievable and high-impact.”
