Brain Sensei was created by entrepreneur John Estrella and Chris Stafford (PMP, MBA), a project manager with over 20 years of experience who also happens to own a karate dojo. The two set out to “create an online learning system that not only works but makes learning interesting.”

Brain Sensei takes a unique approach to online learning by combining interactive lessons with storytelling. Students begin by following a female Samurai tasked with overcoming project planning challenges in Feudal Japan in a series of mobile-optimized, animated lessons.

Students also get access to downloadable content and templates, quizzes, and can re-take any part of the course as many times as they like within 180 days of purchase.
