Experience

  1. Owner

    Business Learning Systems

    Jan 2000 — Present

    Since 2001, I have been providing Learning and Development services to companies of all shapes and sizes in both the public and private sectors. I can help you source the LMS that\'s right for you. I can act as an LMS system implementation project manager, coach, trainer or an emergency LMS administrator…Many times my role is to \"parachute\" in when your LMS Administrator leaves, and you are in a panic! You are trying to figure out how you are going to keep your LMS up and running while you find a replacement!The good news is, I can not only take the driver\'s seat at a moment notice… I can and invariably do assist in optimizing and automating your LMS. I can even provide you with a tried and true LMS administrator job description and assist with the hiring process and the LMS Admin onboarding process.In conjunction with the above, many projects require me to assist or take the lead in the development of critical eLearning or vILT applications related to onboarding, compliance and safety requirements.My 30+ years of experience as a C Level executive in the medical device industry, allows me to bring knowledge to the table related to companywide initiatives, IT management, materials / purchasing management, product management and quality systems and regulatory affairs.If you need help, reach out for a no obligation, 1 hour consult.
