ELLI’s Satisfied Customers
ELLI is Learning’s SatNav!
ELLI assesses Learning Power and tracks change by producing a simple spidergraphic output to a self-completed on-line questionnaire. The 7 measurable dimensions were research-validated by the University of Bristol in the UK, working with Penn State University, USA.
Believe it or not … learning is learnable! It drives performance socially and economically and is proven to be the critical attribute when capitalising on life’s chances and choices.

ELLI is the output of more than 20 years of academic and operational research by the Graduate School of Education, University of Bristol, and colleagues at Penn State University, USA. It is adopted by universities and colleges around the globe, remains integral to doctoral programs internationally and has been translated into a number of languages.
Among ELLI’s beneficiaries have been:
- Schoolchildren battling with underperformance;
- Serial offenders transitioning to new skills to improve their opportunities and change their lives;
- Aborigines preparing to join 21st Century society;
- Disenfranchised and distressed communities including displaced persons and refugees new to learning as a way of life;
- Ethnic minorities fighting a language barrier;
- Universities and colleges seeking to change their ways of working by embracing technology to introduce ‘blended learning’ and enhancing student learning habits when facing differing abilities, ethnic issues, reduced funding and staff shortages;
- Corporate recruitment at all levels, shortlisting applicants for Chairman, apprenticeships, identifying graduate high flyers;
- Selection for promotion: blue collar workers seeking to become supervisors or team leaders, especially in manufacturing;
- Creating teamwork among senior operating theatre clinicians in the NHS amidst destructive professional rivalries.
ELLI has been, and remains, a future-proofed catalyst to performance improvement, whoever you are, to transformational teaching practice and to steering student learning as learning for life. It delivers to UNESCO’s championship of lifelong learning and its refugee and Learning Cities agenda.
Join the Innovation Generation!
Who are the Innovation Generation? … those teachers, schools and colleges embracing Learning to Learn alongside the conventional subject matter of the curriculum.
Why Learning to Learn? … because it is the new 2020s educational mantra when the ability to learn, and fast, is the essential attribute to fit emerging generations for global citizenship in a world without precedent.
Why has citizenship become ‘global’? … because life’s basic needs of food, clothing and shelter are no longer a given. Inequalities driven by climate change, environmental and humanitarian disaster, economic and political upheaval, poverty and inability to access natural resources abound. None of us are now exempt.
