Australian PTE Learning Platform
A test-preparation platform designed for students in Australia, covering the full journey from discovering a course to actually studying, practising and tracking progress.
The project spanned both the acquisition experience — a public marketing website and course discovery — and the core learning product used by students and instructors.
Client identity withheld due to confidentiality.
Context
English-language test preparation is a high-stakes, outcome-driven experience. Many students are studying toward study or migration pathways, often alongside work or other courses, and they need a product that helps them prepare efficiently and know whether they are improving. That meant designing two connected experiences: an acquisition layer that helps prospective students understand and choose a course, and a learning layer where the actual preparation happens.
The challenge
- Turn marketing interest into confident enrolment
- Make lessons easy to start and return to
- Provide practice that mirrors the real test
- Show students whether they are genuinely improving
- Give instructors clear visibility of learners
- Keep administration and content manageable

Core areas
Discovery & enrolment
A marketing site that explains courses, outcomes and pricing, and moves prospective students into a clear enrolment flow.
Learning experience
Structured lessons and content that are easy to start, resume and navigate across sittings.
Practice & assessment
Practice activities and mock tests that reflect the real exam format so students build familiarity and confidence.
Progress & feedback
Visible progress across skill areas so students understand where they stand and what to focus on next.
Instructor & admin
Workflows for instructors to follow learners, and administration for managing courses, content and students.
Design approach
Marketing-to-learning continuity
The path from first visit to first lesson should feel like one product, not a hand-off between two.
Realistic practice
Practice should mirror the real test experience so preparation transfers to test day.
Visible progress
Students should always be able to see improvement and know what to do next.
Instructor clarity
Instructors need a clear view of learner activity without unnecessary complexity.
