Our Origins

Co-founders Adam and Rich are cousins with a shared passion for learning and self-improvement, with years of valuable experience across learning and HR.

They developed the idea for Assemble You when they realised nearly all their personal development was being done via podcasts and audiobooks, as they could upskill while in the car, walking the dog, or at the gym.

As mainstream podcasts aren’t specifically designed for learning (and audiobooks are time-consuming), they developed podcast-style lessons with an educational structure.

From there, they’ve embraced other modalities that prove learning can be engaging, effective and convenient.

What We Do

Podcast-Style Learning

AY is the home of podcast-style audio lessons. Our short audio lessons are designed to be listened to on the go. They complement (rather than compete with) a busy life.
‍

Expert Series

We work with published authors, award-winning trainers and subject matter experts to deep dive into difficult topics. Delivered via audio, these longer lessons draw on stories and real-world experience.
‍

Social Media-Style Shorts

In 2024, we launched Microsoft 365 Shorts, our first technical training. These resources (not courses!) are short, portrait videos that are under ten minutes. They upskill employees in the flow of life and solve problems at the point of need.
