Jim McKinley Brown

I've always been compelled to create meaningful, thoughtful, and beautiful learning environments and spaces, especially those learning experiences in the online virtual world.

Design

eLearning experiences that transforms people and organizations.

Deploy

Learning of all types - virtual, in person, blended, full course or microlearning

Develop

Curricula that empower people to grow and flourish.

Support

Profit and nonprofit, industrial and education organizations in their success.

Making a successful career transition takes time and patience. This is especially true when you're making the leap from academia and higher education and into instructional design and eLearning. So, in this session of The eLearning Designer's Academy Live, Jim Brown and I discuss and answer questions about the lessons he's learned along the way, pivoting from academia to instructional design.
