Previous Projects
Strategic Annual Plan with Core Value Alignment
This is a strategic plan that I created for my department based on company goals. The objective was to align with the goals and create measurable and actionable steps building to the completion of each goal. With the strategic plan, part of the development was measuring my team's satisfaction and areas they felt needed improvement within our team. The feedback was also implemented into the plan to ensure needs and wants were met.
Educational Event Planning
The REALTOR® Connectable is a professional development event that I began developing with the help of my Professional Development Manager. We began with our event objectives and built the idea and structure of the event from there. Through this project, I have developed our budget, secured keynote speakers and national instructors, and collaborated with my team to ensure we are meeting our members needs through the REALTOR® Connectable.
Instructor Tracking and Opportunites
On a daily basis, part of my role is to track instructor approval and educational opportunities. I scheduled courses and instructors. I also reached out to other professionals in the industry to host their classes, bring in keynote speakers for professional development events, and hold higher education classes for our members.
Concourse Training
Concourse is a third-party software program used by College of Eastern Idaho to create a better overall experience for faculty and students in regard to syllabi creation. I was assigned a project to revamp their PowerPoint training on Concourse, specifically for faculty. By using Articulate Storyline, I was able to create a more engaging and interactive experience for our faculty training on Concourse, provide our learners with course objectives which were missing from the initial training, and incorporate scenario-based quizzes that aligned with the content throughout the training.
Course Alignment Map
This course alignment map was meant to assess the alignment of the course outcomes, the module learning outcomes, the assessments/ assignments, the course materials, and technology in an online Communications 101 course.
Online Course Quality Question Alignment Phase 1
The Online Course Quality Question Alignment project took the online quality rubric and created measurable questions that aligned with the rubric. I took the overall description of each section and important elements in the rubric to create a base question for our team to work from. The goal was to create measurable questions about our online courses and for our students to rate the quality of their courses.
