Our core beliefs and most important values

Who we are…

We are experienced professionals with backgrounds in broadcast TV, radio, new media, journalism and education.

What we do…

We use our expertise in media production to develop high-quality, visually rich educational content.

How we do it…

We listen and collaborate, drawing on a range of professional skills, targeted to your vision and budget.

Our values…

We like to work with client organisations who care, as we do, about making the world a better place. We aspire to decrease our carbon footprint and to increase our cost-effectiveness.

Our philosophy…

Clear Focus offers technical expertise and a deep understanding of how people learn. We build longstanding, respectful relationships with partner organisations, and relish the chance to learn about their expertise.

We like to listen to quiet voices, speaking with conviction about subjects they feel passionate about.

Clear Focus has evolved from broadcast television to global course creation. We continue to grow and embrace our changing technological world, whilst keeping to our core values of good stories, with impact, told well.

Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.
