Better learning starts with a better question.
We help education organizations, learning teams, and growth-minded businesses solve problems with learning, technology, and the way everything works together. From clear strategy to beautifully built products, we make the complicated feel manageable.
What we solve
Make learning work better.
Is your content too complicated?
Is your learning platform doing too much, or not enough?
Do your learners struggle to find what they need?
We make learning that works better.
We figure out what's getting in the way and do the work that makes a difference. A new course isn't always the answer. Neither is a new platform. The right solution starts with understanding the problem.

The studio
Small by design. Broad in what we can do.
Studio Trudeau is an independent consultancy led by Eric Trudeau. We bring together deep experience in learning, creative direction, and digital products, then draw on a trusted network of specialists when a project calls for it. You work with people who understand the problem, care about the details, and are excited to make something better.
Some projects need a fresh perspective. Others need a complete build. We enjoy both.
Hello, I'm Eric
Part strategist. Part designer. Always curious.
I'm Eric Trudeau. My work has taken me from running a small business to leading creative and learning teams, designing education programs, and building the technology behind them. I like complicated problems, thoughtful design, and asking whether the solution we're about to build is actually the one people need.
Eric Trudeau, principal
