Storyboarding: Where creativity meets strategy
Leveraging the power of storyboarding, ADDIE, SAM, and Understanding By Design I transform learning into a storytelling journey that keeps users curious and engaged.
Content Development: Where strategy meets innovation
I craft immersive learning experiences using cutting-edge technologies like Articulate Storyline and Rise, Camtasia, Quizmaker, and more. I transform complex concepts into bite-sized, user-friendly content that is informative, easily digestible, and intuitively navigable.
Assessment: Where innovation tests its mettle
I create assessments that assess actual learning, connecting learning objectives to learning outcomes. Did the content deliver the message? Are users growing according to organizational priorities?
Custom certificates of completion reward the user with tangible evidence of their learning and provide employers with a track record of employee engagement.
Launching the Pilot
Large, system-wide training initiatives require extensive strategic planning leading up to launch time. I collaborate with stakeholders of all kinds to manage launch logistics and to create project timelines that anticipate regulatory, practical, and policy considerations.
Engaging Asynchronous Content
Adults learn best when they understand why they need the training, when training is interactive and visually appealing, and when the user has the freedom to learn at their own pace.
l apply principles of best practice in androgogy to create a vibrant, self-directed participatory learning journey that keeps the user interested, engaged, and moving forward.
I create content that addresses training gaps identified by stakeholders during needs analysis.
Measurable learning objectives connect training to needs and outcomes.
User-friendly interactivity creates an engaging and fun learning experience for users of all ages and skill levels.
In-person and hybrid-remote options
I create content for in-person instructor-led trainings complete with slides, scripts, instructor manuals, student study guides, ancillary activities, multiple versions of exams, and exam keys.
I share content via Learning Management System, SharePoint, or via web hosting.
Samples of Work
I have created synchronous and asynchronous trainings related to a wide variety of topics for government agencies, nonprofit organizations, K-12 schools, and higher education. I have created training related to health care, wellness, behavioral health, and nonprofit management.
