Who Is Ara Rubyan?
I have extensive experience as a technical trainer, consultant and entrepreneur. I work with small and medium-sized companies on strategies for learning development and employee performance enhancement.
The Problem As I See It
Today’s problems are too complex and urgent to be addressed as they were in past years. One-way, structured, and formalized training isn’t enough anymore. To meet these new challenges, your organization must be able to tap into all the knowledge and experience your organization possesses all the time.
This is what informal learning tools and techniques can do. Informal training is more effective because it is “just-in-time,” customized and personal. Your employees are more motivated to getting it (and giving it). It also has greater credibility and relevance.
How I Can Help You
I can analyze, design, and develop training content for learning management systems (LMS), computer based training programs (CBT), produce instructional design, and can perform classroom technical training.
I can help you implement faster, cheaper and more effective informal training solutions for your organization. I do this by deploying commonly accessible social networking technologies to promote collaboration between groups of people.
Why You Can Believe Me
I have a deep background in training which I have combined with my experience in network engineering and systems analysis. Lastly, I have very strong written and verbal skills which I have used to achieve a degree of success in online content development and marketing. For more details, please read my resume.
This blog is my way of sharing my thoughts on how to use open source and open platform software to build stronger and faster connections between people in organizations.
Don’t wait for some point in the future to implement better learning solutions — the future is now.
