RISKY RICK
Click here to check it out. For this OSHA eLearning Challenge, I wanted to move away from a traditional “click-next” compliance experience and explore a more cinematic, behaviour-driven approach to warehouse safety training. Rather than focusing purely on rules and hazard identification, I built the concept around a character called “Risky Rick”, an experienced warehouse operative whose confidence and familiarity with the environment lead to unsafe decisions and shortcuts. The experience begins with a fast-paced montage sequence showing Rick carrying out increasingly risky behaviours across a warehouse setting, including: overreaching from a ladder dropping boxes using a forklift without checking the environment properly creating trip hazards with pallet wrap mixing chemicals carelessly The intention was to make the learner feel like an observer watching unsafe behaviour escalate in real time, rather than simply being told what not to do. After the montage, the experience rewinds and breaks each scenario down using freeze-frame analysis interactions. Instead of using standard multiple-choice questions, I focused on three reflective lenses: OBSERVE: the behaviour or warning sign INTERVENE: the point where action should happen CULTURE SIGNAL: what the behaviour suggests about wider workplace norms and accepted risk Visually, I leaned heavily into a gritty, cinematic warehouse style using bold typography, industrial textures, high-contrast colour palettes, and dynamic OSHA-inspired graphics. The “Risky Rick” branding was designed to feel more like a behavioural safety campaign than a standard training course. From an instructional design perspective, the project explores how storytelling, character-driven scenarios, rewind analysis, and progressive reflection can create a more immersive and memorable learning experience around workplace safety and risk awareness.

The safety slides got a glow-up: OSHA Course Starter Template Safety training doesn't have to be a snooze-fest. This is a simple starter pack built around a character-driven illustration theme. The source file is available for download on the Resources tab. Grab it, riff on it, make it yours. OSHA turning 55 felt like the right moment to sit this one out. #ELHChallengeELH #552 Control the Energy: Lockout/Tagout Safety Essentials
Sharing a pretty basic example for this week’s eLearning Heroes Challenge. This one is a simple OSHA-related Lockout/Tagout course starter template built in Storyline. It includes a landing page, learning objectives slide, knowledge check template, and a flashcard activity. Nothing too wild or groundbreaking this time. I did not have much time this week, but I wanted to jump back into the challenges and start building the habit again. Sorry for being a little boring on this one. I promise I’ll try to get more creative going forward. For now, I’m just glad to be getting back into the rhythm. Check it out here!
