174: Crafting a Learning Culture – Hannah Ryan

Learning Uncut

Hannah Ryan, Learning and Capability Manager at Versent, joins Michelle Ockers to share how she helped shape a vibrant learning culture at the Australian technology consultancy, recognised with the 2025 AITD Excellence Award for Best Learning Culture. As Versent's first and only L&D professional, Hannah reflects on how she reshaped her role managing an LMS and leadership program to enabling learning in the flow of work.

The conversation dives deep into Craft | 180, a peer-led, program designed to grow technical mastery. Hannah unpacks how Versent cultivates self-directed learning, builds deep craft expertise, and strengthens community across a geographically dispersed and technically diverse workforce. This episode offers a compelling example of modern, scalable L&D practice—where learning is embedded, employee-led, and aligned with business and individual growth.
