Learning & Skills Consultancy
Meteora Mastery helps organisations set their learning strategy, understand their skills, build the capabilities they need and sustain them at scale, with 25 years of L&D leadership behind every engagement.
Services
Each service stands on its own, and each builds on the last: strategy sets the direction, skills show where you are, capability development closes the gaps, and the platform sustains it at scale.
01Set direction
For leaders who need learning to drive business results.
A clear learning strategy, an L&D function built to deliver it, and senior learning leadership when you need it.
02Know your skills
For organisations moving to skills-based decisions.
Know what skills you have, what you need and where the gaps are, and use that to decide on learning, hiring and careers.
03Build capability
For organisations building a specific capability.
Programmes that change how people work, from leadership development to AI literacy, grounded in learning science and built at pace.
04Sustain at scale
For organisations that want a ready-made learning library.
175+ expert-designed courses, an AI tutor, SkillPulse retention and skills tracking, set up for your organisation.
How we work
The same process used to build learning at the world’s best organisations, with AI making every stage faster and more consistent, never less rigorous.
Performance analysis first: what must people do differently, and what is stopping them? We agree what success looks like before designing anything.
Strategy, frameworks and curricula grounded in established learning science and in your organisation’s context.
Expert-led development, accelerated by AI, with every output checked against explicit quality standards.
Reinforcement, skills tracking and reporting, so capability sticks and you can show that it did.
Learning professionals set the methodology and the quality bar. AI applies them at scale.
We measure skills and performance, not hours watched or courses completed.
We say where AI is used, label what it produces, and keep people in control.
Your strategy, frameworks and content stay yours. We earn the next engagement by being useful.

Founder & Principal Consultant
About
Niall Donohoe is a learning and development leader with over 25 years’ experience designing, delivering and scaling professional training at global organisations. He also brings deep expertise in machine learning and AI, a rare combination that means he understands both how people learn and how AI systems actually work.
He founded Meteora Mastery on a simple belief: AI is the most powerful tool an instructional designer has ever had, but only when it is guided by someone who understands learning. He designed and built the Meteora Mastery platform end to end, encoding 25 years of L&D practice into a disciplined design process.
Today he works with organisations across learning strategy, skills and capability development and, when they need it, as an interim or fractional Head of L&D.
