I led the development of an in-depth advanced electrical badge course, managing the project from start to finish. This included collaborating closely with SMEs to ensure the content was accurate, comprehensive, and aligned with learner needs. In addition to designing and developing the course, I created a promotional video to generate interest and excitement among potential learners.
