What MMC Learning and Development does

MMC Learning and Development (MMCLD), trading legally as MultiMedia Concepts Pty Ltd, is an Australian proprietary training solutions provider founded in 1991 and headquartered in Burwood, New South Wales. The company designs, develops, and sustains bespoke learning and capability solutions for three primary verticals: corporate enterprises (notably banking, telecommunications, and resources), the Australian Defence Force and Defence industry (Army, Navy, Air Force, CASG), and Australia's National Security community (DFAT, ASD, AGSVA, AGO). MMCLD's service offering spans end-to-end instructional design under its ADDIE-S framework (Analyse, Design, Develop, Implement, Evaluate, Sustain), custom application development, scenario-based simulations, part-task trainers, digital twin construction, and managed Integrated Learning Environments.

The company's technology stack centres on proprietary Integrated Learning Environments (ILEs) — notably CAMPUS and ADELE — which combine Learning Management Systems, Content Management Systems, and analytics platforms, framed within the Systems Approach to Defence Learning (SADL) and delivered via the ADDIE-S methodology. Complementing the platform layer is a modular product line (E-Books, Quick Reference Guides, Mobile Learning Systems, Virtual Learning Systems) intended for resale and integration into broader programmes. Notable technical artefacts include a complete digital twin of a naval vessel, part-task trainers for towed array systems, and four feature-quality films produced under the Air Warfare Destroyer programme.

MMCLD generates revenue through three streams: project-based custom learning solution development (professional services), one-time licensing of training products, and managed services for integrated learning environments (platform development, implementation, and ongoing sustainment). The go-to-market is enterprise field sales via consultative, long-cycle engagements, augmented by a Partner Program and channel partners in Defence industry. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is quote-based per engagement. The company is 100% Australian-owned, private, with headcount of 11-50 employees, led by CEO Cary Redstone, and is credentialed with ISO 9001:2015, ISO/IEC 27001:2022, DISP membership, IRAP alignment, JOSCAR accreditation, AUKUS Partnership Framework participation, and Veteran Employment Program support.
