Michele Wiedemer has been providing freelance solutions to a variety of companies since 2006. With a background in corporate and instructional writing, she can guide your project through the entire development process from instructional design, to storyboarding, to development in Adobe Captivate, Articulate Storyline, Camtasia, or other tools.

Office 2016 Courses

Picture
In association with a third-party course provider, I developed comprehensive materials for training on Office 2016 products (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Access). The courses include instructor-led training materials (instructor guide, training manual, PowerPoint slides and Quick Reference Sheets) as well as a self-paced version available via eLearning (developed in Articulate Storyline 2).
​This sample is an excerpt from the Excel Essentials course.
Tools used for this project: Word, PowerPoint, Audacity, Articulate Storyline 2. 

SaaS Knowledgebase Articles and How-to Videos

I built out the knowledgebase with accompanying how-to videos for important tasks and processes.

Tools used for this project: FreshDesk, Camtasia, Audacity.

Software Getting Started Guide and Video Series

SketchList 3D is a custom woodworking and cabinet design software that helps both do-it-yourselfers and woodworking pros create beautiful designs that save hours over planning projects by hand. A better Getting Started Guide was designed to help improve the conversion ratio of free trials to paid users. The Getting Started Guide included the procedures for the primary basic processes for using the software. The project included the analysis, design, development, and implementation of an HTML-based help and a PDF guide, with linked tutorial videos for 8 tasks important for the new user to learn.

Conceptual Video

Picture
In this project, Strongpoint wanted to reduce the amount of one-on-one training time that customer success consultants provided as part of the process of onboarding new customers. I identified an opportunity to deliver the conceptual training in several on-demand videos, in combination with checklists that both the new customer and the customer success consultant use as they work through the onboarding process for a highly technical product.
Tools used for this project: PowerPoint, Captivate, Audacity.

Quick Start Interactive Video

Sample Onboarding How To Video
This project included making several training videos to be included in an app that connects with a bluetooth device, aimed at customers with little experience with technology. This quick start example connects three videos in one overview that explains everything the customers need to do to get started. Click here to view the onboarding overview.
Tools used for this project: Captivate, Camtasia, Audacity, and Storyline 2. 

Design and Development of Commercial Online Course

Picture
The Trainers Ultimate Toolkit is a complete online program to provide all of the tools you need to launch your corporate (or other) training business. This course will be available for purchase soon.

It includes over 15 hours of video, presented in small lessons, with activities in the implementation guide designed to help students make their businesses successful with speed.
