About Candy Sugarman

I design training that engages, educates, and drives results.With over 18 years of experience in instructional design and eLearning development, I specialize in transforming complex information into engaging, results-driven learning experiences. I’ve worked with organizations like the Red Cross, ServiceNow, and Duke Health Systems, as well as multi-million dollar coaches and non-fiction authors, to create training that improves knowledge retention and drives business success.Whether it’s: Developing onboarding programs that get new hires up to speed faster Turning a non-fiction book into an interactive eLearning course Creating microlearning content for quick, high-impact trainingMy goal is the same—to design training that sticks and helps learners apply new knowledge immediately.Beyond design, I’m also an experienced facilitator and trainer, having led virtual instructor-led training (vILT) sessions for global teams. I believe learning should be continuous, engaging, and strategically aligned with business objectives. Let’s create training that works. If you need an instructional designer who blends creativity, strategy, and technology, let’s connect. Portfolio:
