“Joanne is the epitome of what VCC instructors should be for online instructors. Compared to my very first online instructor who is no longer with VCC, Joanne was always professional, polite, knowledgeable, and well experienced in her field. Joanne is an engaging instructor who can share her enthusiasm for eLearning with her students. Her industry knowledge and dedication to teaching contributed to my growth and experience at VCC.” Michael C., VCC student

“Joanne is an outgoing person with tremendous knowledge of the L+D world. She is extremely capable and reliable” Andy Foley, Director, Client Solutions, ICOM

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Joanne on a number of projects over the last few years, as well as interacting with her in her position as chair of our professional organization. Joanne is all those things that you love to have in someone working on a project for you: focussed, energetic, positive, creative and full of great ideas to make workplace learning a success. She builds strong relationships with project stakeholders and subject matter experts, and has the ability to get to the root of problems that aren’t apparent at initiation. And of course her great sense of humour and wonderful smile put people at ease. I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Joanne again, or recommend her capabilities”. Stephanie Jutras, Managing Partner, Limestone Learning

“Joanne took the time to discover what we do, who our organization is, and even came to one of our webinars to experience first hand, the services we offer to our clients. Joanne created an interactive and engaging workshop for my team. The feedback from the team was exceptional however the testament to learning is how the concepts are applied afterwards. We took what we learned in Joanne’s workshop and applied it to all of our online education. We even asked Joanne to come back the following year to build on the training. I would recommend Joanne’s training to any organization”. Stacy Yanchuk Oleksy, Director of Education & Community Awareness, Credit Counselling Society

“The elearning course Joanne built for me is something I am very proud to put out to the public. I think this is a course that will help so many people, but the interactive aspect makes it so much more interesting and clever.” L.L.

“Joanne is such a dynamic and creative leader and I truly had fun with our sessions. She is a master at drawing out the information she needs.” R.Q.

“I had a lot of confidence in a many areas of my design and delivery, and wanted to just focus on one specific area. Joanne listened to my concerns and looked over my lesson plan documents to make suggestions focused only on what I needed from her. I appreciate the fact that she was so efficient and focused. And her suggestions have made a huge difference! Thanks Joanne.” S.H.

“What I liked most about working with Joanne is the fact that afterwards, I felt like I was able to now go forward on my own. She helped me to see the structure of a lesson, and gave me some great tips for making sure I had included everything. My big ‘take-away’ is to really hone that objective – everything is easy after that. Thanks Joanne!” R.P.

“Joanne took the time to really clarify what I was doing that wasn’t working. She was honest, yet gentle. I didn’t feel like I was being put on the hot seat, but rather that I was working with a consummate professional and we were making improvements together.” M.L.

“I really appreciated Joanne’s patience and concern for my learning. She made me feel like I mattered, and that I had this! Her training has made a huge difference in my teaching practice.” B.K.
