Welcome & Introductions

Hi everyone!

My name is Nate Schickling and I am from Rochester, NY, the home of Kodak, Genesee Beer and garbage plates (a true delicacy). I work for Excellus BlueCross BlueSheild as the Instructional Designer for HR. My day-to-day work consists of consultations with team leads of potential trainings, design, development, implementation and evaluation of learning content into our LMS system, Workday Learning. I am currently working on an audit/update of our full HR learning content catalog to ensure all offerings adhere to our HR Learning Style Guide standards and guidelines and also are 508 Accessibility compliant.

I joined the Cohort to expand my knowledge and skill using the AI tool kit within Articulate to offer an elevated learning experience to our employees.

This is my 11 year old Pit/Pointer nanny dog Joy with my 4 year old Ruth and 2 year old Maeve.

And our 9 year old kitty Pidge who kept showing up lost, skinny and cold on our doorstep for a week or two this October before we took her in and tried to find out who she belonged to. (We have officially adopted her now)
