Project Leadership: Coates Hire LMS
When I worked as an LMS Project Manager for Operitel Corporation (now OpenText), I managed learning management system implementations for clients worldwide, and was the dedicated project manager for implementations that were initiated by our Australian reseller partner, B Online Learning.
While B Online Learning recruited clients for our product in the Asia-Pacific region, I managed the team in Canada that configured, branded, tested, and rolled out the LMS for all of B Online's clients. These projects required me to work on an international schedule and coordinate resources across international time zones.
One such project was for Coates Hire, a large staffing agency in Australia, for whom I directed all software development, configuration, branding, and QA activities on our vendor side of the relationship. I drafted the project charter, project plan, and the MS Project Schedules. I was also the main point of contact for communication with the reseller project manager, ensuring that I generated regular weekly or biweekly status reports to accompany our update meetings. I ensured that my team received updated copies of the schedule weekly and worked with them to stay on track, anticipating and removing any roadblocks to their success that would cause the project to go off schedule or not fulfill the client's needs.

Coates Hire submitted the LMS rollout I led with B Online, to the Asia-Pacific LearnX Summit and Awards. The rollout of the Coates Hire LMS won 1st place for "Deployment of a Hosted LMS" at the 2012 Learnx Learning Technology and Impact Awards.
I am proud to have been an integral partner with B Online in the achievement of this award for Coates Hire.
