I’ve recently begun a new chapter as a Trailhead Editor at Salesforce (yay me!), thereby completing an 18-year detour to Trainingland where I fell in love with instructional design. I thought I’d capture the handoff here to commemorate the new chapter and maybe inspire some budding design talent.
I started this segment of my career as a technical writer until one day my manager approached me with a box of software, Adobe Captivate 3, and asked, “Hey, we’ve got this elearning thing and an LMS, but no one knows how to use it. You’re good with computers, do you think you can figure this out?”
“Sure!”
