About Me

Hello, I'm Erik Eastland

Apart from my prowess in incorporating new technologies into effective instruction, I also have exemplary soft skills to seamlessly integrate into any learning and development team. I pride myself in using clear and calm communication,building on others’ ideals, and always working from a place of empathy and understanding.


My Process

Using industry standard software such as Canva, Articulate 360, Microsoft Office Suite, and Google Suite, I can create job aids, instructor led training, and digital learning content to maximize the educational efficiency of your organization. I can adapt my process to apply proven adult learning theory, such as ADDIE or SAM, to your team’s specific needs. I am also adept at developing valid and reliable assessments using a wide variety of question types that map to learning objectives. After assessments are proctored, I can track, analyze and visualize data using your organization’s learning management system. 


My Journey

Before my working career I developed a passion for efficiency and educating others. Through the start of my tutoring business, I discovered my talent for chunking and sequencing complex content to boost learner understanding and retention. Additionally, I honed an instructional style based on patience and positivity. I successfully used these talents in public education, spanning many different schools and a vast array of learners. With an eye to the future and an aim to further expand on my talents, I transitioned into the learning and development field. Here, I have leveraged all of the skills from public education to design impactful learning experiences for adult education. I am excited for you to be a part of this journey with me!
