Welcome to CLASS-Consulting — where coaching meets creativity, and learning transforms lives.

Led by Makeda Payne, a seasoned Learning and Development professional with over 25 years of experience, CLASS has evolved. What began as a trusted partner in corporate instructional design and training has grown into something more expansive, more personal, and more aligned with the whole human experience.

A New Era for CLASS

CLASS is no longer just about corporate learning solutions. Today, we offer a unique blend of holistic life coaching, personal development, and edutainment experiences — all designed to help individuals and communities grow with intention, clarity, and joy.

Makeda brings her deep expertise in adult learning, facilitation, and curriculum design into a new space — one that honors the mind, body, and spirit. Whether you're navigating a life transition, seeking greater purpose, or simply ready to reconnect with your authentic self, CLASS offers tools, guidance, and spaces that support you on your journey.

What We Offer Now

• 1:1 and Group Life Coaching grounded in emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and actionable growth

• Workshops and Retreats that combine learning with play, reflection with creativity

• Edutainment Events that make personal development engaging, culturally relevant, and fun

• Community Gatherings and Conversations that nurture belonging, healing, and collective wisdom

Why CLASS?

Because learning doesn’t stop at the office door.
Because transformation is more than productivity.
Because you deserve to live in alignment — and have fun doing it.

Whether you've been with us since the corporate days or you're just discovering what CLASS is all about, we're glad you're here. Let’s grow, together.
