Empowering education with innovative resources

IN an industry often bound by rigid structures and outdated methodologies, Rychelle Carmody is leading the way in modern, interactive learning design.

As the founder of Carmody Group & Co, she has built a business dedicated to revolutionising training – making it engaging, practical and impactful.

With a deep understanding of adult learning and neuroscience principles, Rychelle recognised the challenges organisations faced in delivering meaningful training. Many struggled to make complex content digestible and retainable, often relying on traditional approaches that failed to engage learners. To address this gap, she founded Carmody Group & Co, offering bespoke training solutions tailored to a wide range of industries, including hospitality, engineering, manufacturing, child protection and conservation.

Carmody Group & Co has become a preferred supplier for some of Australia’s leading training institutions, working with TAFEs, government departments and private organisations. The company integrates animation, video production and scenario-based learning to ensure training is not just completed but deeply absorbed – leveraging neuroscience-backed techniques to enhance engagement, retention and real-world application.

The company has also designed industry-standard welding training for TAFEs and prisons and partnered with foster care agencies to create courses that amplify the voices of children and young people. Each project is designed with purpose, ensuring the content resonates with learners and leads to measurable change.

One of its most exciting recent projects involved designing the Advanced Diploma of Engineering Technology (Mechatronics) training for five countries across the globe. That project showcased Carmody Group & Co’s ability to develop high-quality, interactive training that meets the needs of diverse industries and international markets.

Under Rychelle’s leadership, Carmody Group & Co has designed and developed training for more than one million learners, helping organisations across Australia bridge skill gaps and empower their workforces. The company’s expertise spans accredited courses and professional development, with a strong focus on interactive and neuroscience-informed content.

One of its core strengths is the use of microlearning – short, sharp content that fits into busy schedules. In a fast-paced world, learning must be flexible, accessible and easy to digest, and Carmody Group & Co ensures training remains relevant, effective and engaging.

As a female founder in a traditionally-structured industry, Rychelle has had to advocate for innovation and demonstrate the impact of modern learning methods. Her leadership has positioned Carmody Group & Co as a trailblazer in the training sector, known for its ability to transform knowledge into action.

Looking ahead, the company is poised to expand globally, working with organisations that seek training beyond compliance – training that truly makes a difference. The vision remains clear: to create learning that empowers, engages and drives change.

Organisations looking for innovative training solutions that leave a lasting impact can connect with Carmody Group & Co – a company redefining what learning can achieve.
