Skills Leap Australia was founded by Sharaf Goussous, who set out to close the gap between how learning content is designed and how learning platforms actually work. His background sits where teaching meets technology, and that combination shapes everything the studio builds.
In this founder feature, Sharaf reflects on why he started Skills Leap, the philosophy behind a team of geeks who teach and teachers who geek, and where he believes education technology is heading, from Canvas and Moodle to the responsible use of AI in the classroom.
The themes run right through the work today: build learning that people actually finish, meet learners where they are, and treat the platform itself as craft rather than an afterthought.
