Erendira is a skilled and patient course designer, who facilitated the development of an online organizational behavior course. She helped me integrate technology, and identify student learning outcomes, as well as giving me a good sense of how an online course can be successfully developed.

Erendira has a very strong foundation in course development and a very strong foundation in online communications. She was very effective at helping the faculty to make courses interactive, build courses based on student learning outcomes, use the wide variety of tools available for online teaching. Erendira did an excellent job.

The first day I started working at DIRECTV in my role as Sales Center Training Manager, I was informed that I would have to learn InDesign. Due to InDesign being considered the most daunting of programs in my previous organization, I immediately felt intimidated by this prospect. While it did take some self-education, there is no way I could have been successful in my initial design projects without Erendira’s patient coaching and the templates she had built from scratch to support the Team. Through her own diligence and self-discipline, Erendira taught herself InDesign and became the guru to support the other Managers and me. Since design is a majority of our work, I will always be indebted to Erendira for the foundation she provided me and her patient mentoring. Not only is Erendira an expert in design, but she is also a consummate professional and team player. She would be an asset to any team.

Erendira gave me training in teaching and learning with a specific focus on measurable learning outcomes, course design, and evaluation. I found her work superb–the best I received at that particular time.

She has an excellent sense of workflow and is quite persistent when bringing a plan to actualization. Erendira has made many important contributions to online learning. She is friendly, honest, and a pleasure to be around. I recommend her without hesitation.
