David Hallmon’s Summary

Candidate for Instructional Design/Technology or related positions. Has a strong ability to work collaboratively and effectively with others. Excels in giving presentations, facilitating discussions, and sharing knowledge effectively. Genuinely relates well with colleagues and customers, inspiring them to achieve their full potential. Effortlessly applies personal work ethics of being very organized, detail-oriented, analytical, strategic, adaptable, responsive, proactive and innovative. Applies Human Performance Technology principles and models for:

*Determining Needs of Learners, Tasks, and Contexts
*Recommending Tools and Best Practices

David Hallmon’s Specialties:

A firm understanding of Human Performance Technology models and principles, which I will apply to any challenging situation. I believe that the success of any performance system lies in defining measurable objectives to be accomplished by the employees, and evaluating their performance through a comparison against those objectives. Seeing such a performance system through involves (one or many) an individual’s ability to analyze, develop, design, implement, and evaluate instructional units.
