A home for practical learning projects.
FixMySkills was created to support practical skills development through focused learning projects, useful resources and structured capability-building.
The site now acts as the umbrella home for a small portfolio of projects across financial education, instructional design, business value, mindset, planning and AI-enabled learning.
Useful skills matter more than polished information.
We live in a world overflowing with information. The harder challenge is knowing what matters, understanding it clearly and turning it into practical action.
FixMySkills exists to support projects that help people build useful skills, make better decisions and apply knowledge in real-world situations.
Learning, development and practical capability.
FixMySkills is led by David Barras-Baker, a learning and development specialist with extensive experience in instructional design, eLearning, corporate learning, capability development and AI-enabled learning design.
The work is shaped by a practical view of learning: people need clear explanations, useful structure and tools that help them apply what they learn.
Different projects, one practical philosophy.
FixMySkills is not a single course site. It is the parent home for several focused projects, each with its own topic, audience and development pathway.
Some projects are developed with partners. Some are based on books, courses or specialist frameworks. Some are being built gradually as the right content, structure and delivery model become clear.
Money
Helping people build confidence with everyday financial decisions and money management.
Learning design
Supporting better instructional design through structured methods and intelligent use of AI.
Business value
Helping people understand the levers that affect value, profitability and business performance.
Mindset
Supporting practical workplace improvement through mindset, engagement and better leadership behaviour.
Planning
Building structured approaches that help people think clearly, plan better and act with more confidence.
AI-enabled capability
Using AI where it genuinely improves learning design, content development and practical support.
Supporting the projects already underway.
FixMySkills is currently focused on supporting its active projects and developing the projects already in the pipeline.
That means the immediate priority is not endless expansion. The priority is making the current portfolio stronger, clearer and more useful.
