Instructional Design & Training

Picture
A training class I designed and facilitated.

​Is your training getting results?  Effective training design progressively layers information and incorporates all adult learning styles to maximize retention and impact.  The best programs are also highly engaging and leave your employees rejuvenated and excited.  Is your training getting talked about in the office?

My training programs have generated proven results, excited employees, and exceptional ROI.  My specialties are onboarding programs and IT systems training (ILT, e-learning, blended).  


Contact me for help with any of the following:

Needs analysis • audience analysis • training plans •  e-learning courses • classroom courses • blended learning • assessments • facilitation of classes/training delivery • IT systems training • simulations • HR courses • soft skills training • leadership training • process training • compliance training • facilitator guides • PowerPoint presentations (including animated and voiced) • course evaluations • project/program management • mentoring and coaching • training trainers • managing teams of trainers and employees

I have completed some graduate level coursework in instructional design through the University of Wisconsin-Stout. To date, I have formally trained or personally coached approximately 35 employees on how to facilitate and/or design effective training classes.

Captivate e-learning: The Welcome page from one of a series of computer software e-learning courses created in Captivate.  I designed the template and all the content/layout.  I also wrote the script and recorded/edited the voice over work (a sample e-learning script is available on my Portfolio page).

"After using Elizabeth's new hire and on the job training program, employees are understanding the material and asking the right questions.  One employee is even outperforming our veterans!  We are not getting any negative interaction from other groups due to mistakes.  The training program is so straightforward that anyone could pick it up and teach the course."
