Our Content Came to Life Online

"I've been working with Kim for over two years to develop elearning courses for the Sport for Life online campus. Her assistance with the instructional design of our courses has resulted in interactive courses that make our content come to life online. Kim has listened to our vision for the courses and drawn from her wealth of experience to suggest creative solutions for interactive activities included within our courses. She is easy to communicate with and is timely with her responses to questions and delivery of documents. "

– Alex Wilson, Education and Evaluation Manager, Sport for Life Canada

Great Mentor and Instructional Designer

"Kim brings an amazing energy and ‘can do’ approach to developing curriculum that meets the needs of our very different learners. I appreciated her willingness to work with us to translate our vision into something that would work for a learning environment that we were unfamiliar with--- she was a great mentor and instructional designer!"

– Kristi Fairholm Mader, Executive Director, Ready-to-Rent BC

A Valued Resource

"Both personally and professionally, Kim has been a great and valued resource throughout the entire process of reviewing our existing core safety training requirements. Following the review, Kim has been committed to revising and developing our core safety training programs into on-line training modules. We wish to thank Kim for her assistance, dedication and commitment towards completing the modules, and we look forward in utilizing the experience, expertise and knowledge of Trust Communications in future endeavors."
