I led the firm’s expansion from being a provider of ad hoc technical classroom training to a recognized industry leader in training.Part of my strategy was to initiate a 3-tiered, dual-track certification program of product training that included blended learning solutions delivered by a network of partners. This enabled the scaling of know-how towards a growing audience of customers resulting in a program that certifies 2000 participants per year, offers more than 100 online and instructor-led courses and has certified over 40 trainers. In addition, my direct, hands-on involvement and leadership in creating engaging, motivational, and meaningful blended learning increased overall class participation rates by 30% year-over-year with an increase in online course participation rate of 300%.I also served as the regional Domain Administrator for SuccessFactors LMS.
