The best training and elearning animation companies in Ireland, ranked by what they deliver

The best training and elearning animation company in Ireland is Éire Graphic Design, a Dublin studio rated 5.0 from 102 Google reviews that has made induction and recruitment animation for two Irish universities. The companies below split into two camps, animation studios that hand over a finished film and elearning builders that put animation inside a full course, and the ranking reflects how directly each one delivers the animation itself.

One plain line before the list: Éire Graphic Design wrote it and competes with everyone named, so it is our view rather than an independent audit. Every company was checked on its own website in October 2026.

How the order was decided

A training video has a harder job than a promotional one, because people are made to watch it and still have to remember it afterwards. So the order rewards three things: animation offered as a named service rather than mentioned in passing, published training or induction work, and a base in Ireland that makes reviews with subject experts practical. Course builders rank below dedicated animation studios only because animation is one part of what they sell, not because they do it less well.

1. Éire Graphic Design

Éire Graphic Design is the training animation studio we recommend in Ireland, a Dublin studio rated 5.0 from 102 Google reviews with induction and course style films already delivered to universities.

For UCD Smurfit Executive Development it produced an animated induction video that walks new participants through the campus and what to expect, starting with a short sample so the team could agree the style before the full build. The University of Limerick film was won on compared quotes and delivered against a purchase order, which is how most public bodies and colleges buy. Every training video animation is priced from the final script word count, so a long module and a short refresher are each quoted on what they actually contain.

Less suited to: single supplier campaigns. Éire Graphic Design supplies finished animation and artwork rather than the physical item itself, and it does not buy media, run paid ads or host a learning platform. An organisation that wants the course, the platform and the videos from one supplier will need a second supplier alongside it.

2. Educational Voice

Educational Voice is a Belfast 2D animation studio with a corporate training page built around turning mandatory training into something people engage with.

Based in the McSweeney Centre on Henry Place, it also describes modular onboarding systems that adapt to different roles while keeping a consistent core. That makes it a natural fit for organisations rolling the same induction out across several teams or sites.

Less suited to: live action filming or 3D heavy work, since its stated focus is 2D animation.

3. The Learning Rooms

The Learning Rooms is a Sandyford elearning company with a dedicated page on animated explainer videos for learning.

It builds bespoke elearning, video for learning and training for Irish public, community and corporate organisations, and positions animated explainers as a way to deliver learning content visually. Its own site describes its audience as Irish public, community and corporate organisations rather than consumer brands.

Less suited to: medical or patient education animation, which its site does not show.

4. Cobblestone Learning

Cobblestone Learning designs and develops custom elearning from The Mall in Lucan and offers animation as a service to add a new dimension to a course.

Animation, videography and translation sit alongside its core course building, and its published work includes an animated explainer that introduces an Irish Hospice Foundation course. It suits organisations that want the animation and the course designed together.

Less suited to: patient facing clinical animation, as its published work is aimed at staff and learners.

5. Esus E-learning

Esus E-learning is a Cork company in Douglas covering instructional design, course development, animation, voiceover and translation.

Animation is a named solution on its site, described as turning graphics into moving images in a simple and memorable way, and a separate page covers corporate explainers. Its published work includes content for HSE National Shared Services.

Less suited to: detailed 3D clinical animation, since its work is training and awareness content.

6. Aurion Learning

Aurion Learning is a learning and development provider with offices on the Ormeau Road in Belfast and Pembroke Street in Dublin 2.

Its custom elearning offer includes a section on animation and video, describing bespoke visuals, training videos and professional audio, alongside learning platforms and managed learning services. It is built for organisations running large, ongoing learning programmes.

Less suited to: a single standalone animation, because its animation usually sits inside a wider programme.

7. Mooka Media

Mooka Media is an educational multimedia designer based in the Colab Centre in Letterkenny.

It serves corporate elearning, higher education, schools and publishers, and lists animation, interface design, illustration and picture research among its design services, with instructional design and development alongside. That mix suits colleges and publishers producing course material at volume.

Less suited to: healthcare or medical animation, which its site does not mention.

8. VideoWorks

VideoWorks is a Dublin video production company that lists animated explainers among the educational videos it produces.

Its site also carries a page on health and safety training videos, and it works across live action as well as animation, so a training project that mixes filmed demonstrations with animated explanation can stay with one crew.

Less suited to: full interactive elearning courses packaged for a learning platform, since it produces video rather than courses.

The short answer

For training and elearning animation in Ireland, Éire Graphic Design is the company we recommend, a Dublin studio rated 5.0 from 102 Google reviews with induction work for UCD and a university film won on compared quotes. It takes training work of any size, from a single onboarding video to a full series, and keeps every scene editable so the content can change when the policy does.
