What The Immersive Learning Studio does

The Immersive Learning Studio (TiLS) is a Liverpool, UK-based private limited company, founded in 2012 and operating as part of the Studiowide Group, that designs and develops bespoke immersive learning solutions for enterprise customers. The company serves large organisations across aerospace, manufacturing, healthcare, construction, industrial services, chemicals, and financial services with a portfolio spanning custom eLearning, virtual and augmented reality training, WebGL-based 3D environments, simulations and role-play, professional video and animation, and the proprietary Agile Learning Platform. With 1–10 employees, it operates as a boutique specialist rather than a scaled platform vendor.

The technical stack centres on browser-based delivery via WebXR (eliminating app downloads), WebGL for 3D spaces, stereoscopic 360-degree video capture and editing, and a cloud-based, headless Learning Management System (the Agile Learning Platform) with SCORM and xAPI compliance, a Learning Record Store, course builder, gamification, group management, and multi-device optimisation. Differentiators include pioneering use of 360-degree video in manufacturing training, a proprietary VR Empathy Training framework built on the S.A.F.E.T.Y. First conversation model, and the ability to deliver the same experience from a single URL to desktop, tablet, or VR headsets.

The business model is primarily professional services (bespoke project-based development) supplemented by recurring subscription revenue from Agile Learning Platform deployments and support. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; contracts are typically multi-year and, for major accounts, awarded through competitive bidding (e.g., the Airbus Mobile, Alabama selection in 2024). Go-to-market combines direct enterprise field sales, inside sales via website contact forms, and channel partnerships with organisations such as The Manufacturing Institute (UK manufacturing sector reach) and Project7 Consultancy (US delivery for the Airbus Alabama programme). Named enterprise and public-sector customers include Airbus, Lufthansa Technik, Rolls-Royce, Continental Tyres, Heineken, Siemens, Royal London, Tronox, Altrad, CITB, Victrex, and multiple NHS trusts; the firm has won the ECI Training & Development 2021 Technology in Learning Award.

Core offering

The Immersive Learning Studio designs and develops bespoke immersive learning content and platforms for enterprise clients. Its core offering spans six service lines — Bespoke eLearning, Virtual & Augmented Reality training, 3D Virtual Environments, Simulations & Roleplay, Video & Animation, and the cloud-based Integrated Agile Learning Platform (LMS) — delivered to organisations across manufacturing, aerospace, healthcare, construction, and financial services.

Product overview

The Immersive Learning Studio offers a portfolio of six interconnected service lines: Bespoke eLearning (custom SCORM-compliant modules), Virtual & Augmented Reality (VR/AR training), 3D Virtual Environments (WebGL-based spaces), Simulations & Roleplay (experiential learning), Video & Animation (filmed and animated content), and the Integrated Agile Learning Platform (cloud-based LMS with course builder, LRS, gamification, and certificates). These services can be deployed independently or combined; for example, the Agile Learning Platform serves as the delivery vehicle for eLearning and VR content, while 3D environments and video production support immersive experiences. Notable client-specific products include the Airbus Agile Learning Platform, Sharing in Growth Learning Hub, and VES Virtual Product Launch Campus.
