The Learn By Design School is where nonprofits, startups, and entrepreneurs go for hands-on support.

Learn By Doing
We know adults learn by doing. Each course ends with actionable next steps and a checklist.

“"When I decided to launch an LMS, I called Monica Gragg. After listening to my objectives, she was able to provide the data about the myriad options for online learning platforms in an easy-to-follow spreadsheet. Each option included a comparison of costs, pros, and cons. She took a vast amount of data and made it both manageable and more importantly, useful. I highly recommend Monica for her expertise in online learning platforms."”

Who should join our program?
The Learning By Design School is for anyone that wants to build a course, school, or online training program.
Most of our learners work at a nonprofit, startup, or are entrepreneurs. MANY of our learners are struggling to get started.
The struggler?
You’ve got a great idea for an online course, but it’s forever getting put on the backburner. It’s probably your side hustle right now, but if it takes off, who knows? You won’t ever know unless you start making things happen. And that’s where the Learn By Design School can help. We’ll provide the tools, the inspiration, and the expert advice that will give you the push you need to bring your ideas to life.
About the Founder
The school was founded by Monica Gragg from Miami, Florida. Inspired by her parents to get the highest level of education and experience as much of life as possible, Monica earned a Masters degree in Education from the Glion Institute of Higher Education in Switzerland.
She has lived in 7 countries and explored over 90, yet has still found time to develop over 450 online courses. She’s also managed multiple online learning communities, schools, and training programs, and is now Head of Creative at a learning solutions company.
She started Learn By Design in 2016 because she wanted to make education affordable and accessible to all. And one way to do that was to make it easier for online learning entrepreneurs to build online learning opportunities for others.
