Week 1 Welcome & Introductions

Hello!

My name is Debbie and I'm one of the peer guides for the August AI Assistant Cohort!

I went through the certification cohort back in May and had a great time. I learned quite a bit about all the abilities the AI Assistant can do in Reach 360 and it really helped me with a Storyline 360 course I worked on at the time. I think I really annoyed my team with how much I was singing the praises of the AI Assistant and all it could do to help us with our work.

I'm located in Atlanta, GA and work for Emory Healthcare as an Instructional Designer for the Patient Access Services division. I am also the LMS Administrator for the training program.

I have a fun update since May regarding my pet situation. I introduced the May cohort to Gerard, my void 6 year-old cat, but as of last Friday we now have an 8-week old void named Abraham in our household. The settling in and introductions are going well and it's hard not to squee every time I see the smol boi bouncing around the house.

We adopted Abraham so my son (almost 10) could have a cat to bond with, so he named him after the 16th US President. He's a budding history nerd which makes me proud.

I look forward to meeting and working with everyone over the next two weeks! I hope everyone gets as much out of the program as I did. You're in great hands with Alyssa.
