custom training
overview

I am a professional communicator with solid writing and editing skills, and a broad computer competence that supports those skills. I have the ability to use video, audio, multimedia, the World Wide Web, and print to get the message across.

I come from a strong creative production background in broadcast television, and I view training as one of the most useful applications of my experience in that realm.

Since 1987, I have focused my efforts in the creation of effective training solutions. I researched and wrote a wide variety of multimedia, CBT and video training materials.

I served a wide range of companies in the telecommunications, chemical and process, healthcare, manufacturing, and general industries.

I developed materials for the corporate, industrial and research environments.

My strengths include project management; training needs assessment and translation of technical and regulatory information into language understandable to the appropriate level of trainees or employees.

Now, with the explosion of the Internet, the dream of training "any time any where" is becoming a reality, and the day can be foreseen that anyone can earn a degree over the Internet, from any place on Earth - or maybe even places away from Earth.
