Learning & Development
Specialist
I’m Rob Hills. I design and deliver learning and development for Australian government agencies, through Openloop Solutions. Custom eLearning, leadership programs and team development, built by someone who spent more than two decades inside Defence and law enforcement before moving to the front of the room.
WHAT I DO
Digital learning
Custom eLearning for government: compliance training people actually finish, scribblers, animations and full program suites. This is my happy place.

Programs and workshops for Federal Agents, Police Officers, Senior Public Servants and brand new Team Leaders, delivered since 2012.
Explore programs →Team development with HBDI

I've sat where your learners sit
Ten years RAAF, thirteen AFP. I know the difference between training that ticks a box and training that changes a shift.
Designer and deliverer
Most consultants do one or the other. I build the learning and stand behind it in the room, so nothing gets lost in the handover.
Backed by Openloop
I work through Openloop Solutions, a Canberra consultancy supporting government agencies. One person's insight, a company's backing.
I practise what I teach
I wrote The Mindful Leadership Blueprint and host The Balanced Leader podcast. The thinking behind my programs is public, go and check it.
HOW IT WORKS
Getting started is deliberately simple. Three steps, no lock-in, and you’ll know exactly what you’re getting before you commit to anything.
Tell me what you need
Fill in the contact form with a rough idea of your team, the challenge, and any timing. Don't worry about getting it perfect.
We talk it through
We'll jump on a call and dig into what's actually going on. I'll tell you honestly whether a workshop will fix it or whether you need something else.
You get your proposal
A clear outline of the program, the sessions, and the cost. No surprises, no padding, and no obligation to go ahead.
