About us

Honesty and ethical behaviour are our core attributes and form the DNA of EssentialSkillz. These beliefs are central to our relationships with both employees and customers.

Our story

EssentialSkillz was founded in Galway (Ireland) in 2001 by husband and wife team, Tony & Michelle Dervan. Tony had worked on multi-million dollar eLearning projects for Microsoft Interactive Press and Michelle was an experienced classroom teacher. Galway is still home to EssentialSkillz and is supported today by customer-facing offices in Chester (UK) and Delaware (USA).

We are extremely proud of the quality of our product and the service we provide. We work hard every day to ensure we deliver excellent value to our customers. As good as we believe our product to be, it is our after-sales support that differentiates us in the market.
