About
I’m Eva Drysdale, Founder and Head of L&D at Noble & Bright. For more than two decades I’ve built performance-based learning programmes, from tertiary qualifications and teacher training to global corporate programmes for essential workers, management and senior leadership across food services, food and workplace safety, hospitality and tourism.
The discipline runs through all of it: behaviour change as the bar, capability as the deliverable, and performance as the measure.
Alchemy360 is the company behind Noble & Bright. It holds the intellectual property and the engine that powers our work, including Vocal.
What we do
My expertise is performance-based learning design. I built Vocal, an agentic AI performance-support tool that addresses the implementation gap in adult professional learning. Educators rehearse real situations with Al, their personal mentor, in a private space, so they know exactly what to say and do when the moment comes.
