Week 1 Welcome & Introductions

Hi everyone! My name is Bailey Croom and I work for Kaiser Permanente's Regional Virtual Medical Center (RVMC) based in Fontana, CA. I am a Design and Documentation Consultant (formerly known as an Instructional Designer) and I am responsible for designing training materials for physicians, nurses, group leaders, and other team members. I joined this cohort because we often use Articulate 360 and understanding the full capabilities of AI Assistant will only improve my skillset. 

Here is my dog (or as I prefer) my son, Miso! He recently turned 5 years old at the beginning of the month and loves going on long walks with his parents or playing with his 13-month-old brother!

 

Hi everyone,

Hello everyone, my name is Christine and I'm joining from Austria. I work at the National Bank in the HR department, specifically in personnel development, and I'm responsible for all e-learning topics in the training area. I'm participating in the cohort because I want to familiarize myself with AI functions, as these are new to me. I recently returned to the organisation from maternity leave and would now like to make optimal use of the new AI functions. I'm looking forward to the exchange and learning about the new features.

There will be no pet pic from me, as I don't have one ;-)

 

Hey there everyone  👋🏾

Lovely to e-meet you all, I'm Richard located in London (England) working for the Financial Times as a "Training & Growth Manager" for our Customer Contact Centres, which essentially means I manage a team of trainers and recruiters who design and deliver F2F/Virtual and Online Learning, and go out and find the best members to join our teams!

Really looking forward to starting the course and learning more about using AI with Articulate - we've dabbled a bit within the team and on 360 and rise, curious what else is now possible with the updates, also hearing how others have used AI to create more engaging content 😃

Hi, I'm Shanelle! Currently, I work for a restaurant concept, designing and developing training and managing the LMS. Throughout my years in L&D I have held various roles across multiple industries and have used a few different eLearning authoring tools, but Articulate is by far my favorite! 

I've been using some features of Articulate's AI Assistant, but look forward to identifying more opportunities to utilize its features to support my workflow. 

I currently live in North Carolina (I've actually moved here 3 times 🙃)!

Hello,

I am Krista Clanin, located in Zionsville, IN. I was a K-12 teacher, administrator, and instructional coach for 30 years. Now, I am a corporate trainer for Lincoln Tech.  I train all new hires in the foundations of teaching, and I provide ongoing professional development to all instructors.  I am continually developing new training materials for my instructors.

We have a Mini-Golden, a mix of a Golden Retriever and a Cocker Spaniel.  He is a little over 1 year old, but this picture was taken when he was 6 months old.

Hey there! I'm Adry, located in Costa Rica. I currently work as an Instructional Designer at Roche. I want to become a master Jedi in Articulate AI. 

Meet  Alcachofa (Terreneitor for short) Pepinillo (aka Pepi le pug).

Hey everyone! I’m Rob, based in London, and I work for a charity that supports people facing gambling-related harm. I’m a Learning Technologist, and on any given day, you’ll find me managing our learning platform, developing digital learning resources, and providing support across the organisation from an L&D perspective.

I joined this AI Assistant Certification Cohort because I want to explore how AI can help me improve the quality of my work and create better experiences for our learners. I'm excited to learn and see what’s possible!

Hi everyone, I am Tina and I am based near London in the UK.
I work for a software company and create technical training on our complex proprietary software where no two systems seem to be the same!
I fell into e-learning and love to make complex topics understandable for all!
My focus is ensuring the customer has the tools to enable them get what they need from the products they have purchased.

Below is a rare stationary image of my dog Luna (Vizsla x Weimaraner). 
She is supposed to be my daughters dog but loves me more! 

 

Hi all! I'm so excited about this program I can hardly stand it!

I work for Kaiser Permanente (15 years) as a Design & Documentation Consultant IV, Technical Training, but have been working in instructional design and technical training for a little over 30 years (from manufacturing to healthcare). I spend a lot of time building eLearning and figuring out how to turn complex, regulated content into something that actually works for adult learners.

In the past year+, I’ve been really interested in how AI supports design and development in smart, practical ways, and I’m excited to be here learning alongside other designers.

Fun facts: I have 12 grandchildren, which explains both my patience and my coffee habit—and I also have two dogs, Roxy and Autumn, who keep things lively at home. 

 

Hi all! My name is Caroline and I'm located in beautiful Montreal, Canada. I'm a Senior ID at Dayforce, an AI-powered people platform - working full time on the Government of Canada project! I joined this AI cohort, because much like all of you, AI is part of my everyday reality, and the more I know, the better. I enjoy a challenge, keeping up with the changes in our industry and staying relevant. :-) 

Introducing Rosco, our 10 year old Chihuahua, the absolute best doggo! Here he's taking a little break from a day full of exploring Charlottetown PEI last summer.
