What do you need help with?

Most SMEs don’t come looking for “training design”.

You come because something isn’t quite right — and you want clarity, fast.

Jane Feilden on the phone, working from the Jessanol offices.

Something isn’t working…

Mistakes. Delays. Inconsistencies. Customer complaints. Ten people doing the same task ten different ways.

You know something is off… you just can’t quite pin down what.

That’s where I come in — untangling messy problems, sorting the noise from the truth, and helping you fix the root cause without wasting time or money.

We know the training we need — we just need help shaping it

You’ve spotted the gap: onboarding, customer service, compliance, software, processes, skills.

You know what people need — but turning it into training that actually works (and isn’t three hours too long) is the part that gets stuck.

Meeting of four adults.

We just want someone to build it properly

You’re busy. Your team is busy. The “we’ll build that one day” list is gathering dust.

If you want it done properly — guidance, onboarding, e-learning, knowledge banks, templates — I’ll take it off your plate and deliver something you’ll be proud of.

A quick hello from me…

If you’re here because something isn’t working or you’re tired of piecing training together on your own, you’re in the right place.

Here’s a short introduction to Jessanol and how I support small and growing businesses to make learning simple, effective and human.

Real-life learning support for busy SMEs — without the jargon or the fuss.

Struggling with onboarding, training gaps, or a team who are ‘figuring it out’ on their own? You’re not alone — and that’s exactly why Jessanol exists.

I’m Jane, founder of Jessanol, and for over 20 years I’ve helped businesses design practical, real-world learning experiences that actually work. No jargon, no overwhelm — just clear guidance, smart structure, and solutions built for the pace of small and medium-sized businesses.

In this video, I introduce how Jessanol supports SMEs through:
• Power Hours — deep-dive problem solving without a big project
• Practical short courses like Know Your Learners and The Resourceful Manager
• Done-for-you onboarding and bespoke e-learning that’s mobile-friendly, short and effective
• Fractional L&D support for teams who need ongoing help without the hassle

If you want training that fits real life — real pressures, real tools, real people — you’re in the right place.

Sometimes that’s a template.
Sometimes it’s an hour of clarity.
Sometimes it’s a full project that needs to be taken off your plate.

However you choose to work with me, everything is:

  • Practical

A Few Recent Projects

TBA

SAAS Support Team

A growing software company was losing new hires in the first month.

We simplified the onboarding journey, tightened the learning flow and built clear guidance for both managers and new starters.

Their onboarding is now structured, performance goals met — and their retention has jumped.

SME with Busy Teams

This team was overwhelmed by long, complicated training materials that nobody had the time to read.

We stripped everything back to the essentials, reorganised their content, and rebuilt it into short, practical resources their staff now use daily.

Retail Support from Compliance Association

They needed training delivered fast — and in a format people would actually use.

We created a set of mobile-friendly digital learning modules with clear scripts, examples and realistic scenarios.

Multiple teams now learn on the go, with zero disruption to daily work.

Not Sure What You Need?

Most SMEs start with a clarity session — it’s quick, affordable and gives you a clear understanding of what’s going on and what to do next.

One hour, one problem, one actionable plan.
