Jeff High
Instructional Designer & eLearning Developer
Experience Across Industries
Over the past 20+ years, I've designed learning solutions across multiple industries:
Financial Services
Compliance and risk training
Energy & Utilities
Safety and technical training
AI & Productivity
Microsoft Copilot and efficiency
I've developed eLearning courses, training videos, instructor-led materials, and performance support tools aligned to real business needs and operational goals.
My Design Philosophy
Clarity, curiosity, and connection.
Great training isn't about slides or software—it's about helping people understand, engage, and apply what they've learned in meaningful ways.
My Approach
My work is grounded in proven instructional design principles, including Gagné's Nine Events of Instruction, Bloom's Taxonomy, and Kirkpatrick's Model of Evaluation.
I apply these frameworks to structure learning experiences from the start—designing for engagement, reinforcement, and measurable outcomes.
I collaborate with subject matter experts through structured conversations and iterative feedback to ensure content is accurate, practical, and aligned with real-world performance.
