Week 1 Welcome & Introductions

Hi everyone!
My name is Emily Barber and I am in Mead, Colorado which is just north of Denver. I am an eLearning Designer and Developer at The Nature Conservancy. My team develops training for various groups within the organization including supporting Ethics/Legal training, but also doing things like Gender Based Violence, Reef Resilience, and Natural Climate Solutions. We work closely with our clients in an Agile based format with lots of collaboration and teamwork to create engaging performances. Our team also supports our LMS system by making sure it runs properly, responding to support/maintenance tickets, and helping users around the globe with any issues they may have. 

I joined this cohort because our team using Articulate for most of our trainings, and I am always seeking opportunities to learn more about the product. I want to make sure we are taking advantage of everything the tools have to offer in order to create engaging, learner focused, courses.

Here is a picture of my fur babies. Mousse is a Shih-Tzu, Sam is a Standard Poodle, and Scout is a Husky/Shepard mix.
