Rebecka Anderson

Rebecka has incredible skills in technology, but more importantly, she is able to use that technology in the service of projects and people. Her ability to explain and demonstrate concepts, respond to requests for information, and support the work being done is consistently exceptional. As colleagues, we co-supervised a staff member and she was a pleasure to work with. I have since used her as a consultant to build a database, train staff, and help me to make decisions about what technological applications would best meet my distance learning needs. I value her expertise, professionalism, and responsiveness. I turn to her blog on free and low cost technology regularly. She is a uniquely gifted individual.

I have worked with Rebecka for 10 years. Throughout this time she always kept our project in sync with cutting edge information technology. She is innovative, creative, and a great problem solver and troubleshooter. Rebecka designed several of our professional websites and database systems. She was instrumental in the development and support of our online learning communities, communities of practice and community networks. She was instrumental in helping our participants understand how these new technologies, social networking and web 2.0 tools could help them stay connected over time. She is professional, easy to work with very knowledgeable and personable. Rebecka is a pleasure to work with and she has a great sense of humor.

I work in the field of online learning and Rebecka’s knowledge of online learning technology and all major uses and functions of platforms is unsurpassed. She has provided me countless hours to TA on everyone from how to troubleshoot SCORM compliant uploads to the best uses of tools for my online learning goals and audiences. Her knowledge and skills are invaluable for anyone she provides support.

Rebecka is a top notch, reliable, competent professional. She is an excellent manager and is extremely well organized. Rebecka has the vision, the big picture, as well as the details in mind as she approaches her work. She communicates very clearly verbally and in writing. She always completes her work in a timely way – and keeps the team updated regularly on her progress. Rebecka is creative, an excellent problem solver, and a fun person to work with (e.g., check out her blog on low cost technology and her skills in lighting!). I would be pleased to provide any additional information that you might need.

Rebecka is a wonderful person to work with. She is an extremely skilled technology professional, a great manager, a fabulous trainer, and a major team player. She has developed our online video and training library, our web site, blogs, social media presence, conference registration, online conference preparation and follow up, webinars, and a variety of technology related professional development activities. Rebecka has also been instrumental in supporting professional development for our team in the area of technology through individual consultations, team trainings, and customized small group supports. She has kept our staff, consultants, and clients on the cutting edge of technology.

Rebecka is able to translate highly technical concepts in very consumable ways. She helped us translate face-to-face training strategies into online learning environments that maximize the principles of effective professional development and participant learning. She is extremely responsive to a variety of audiences, including team members, consultants, and consumers. During our National Leadership SpecialQuest training event, Rebecka’s session was “sold out” and received rave reviews and an award from participants! I have learned so much from Rebecka and really enjoy working with her.

Rebecka rocks as a manager. At the operational level, she’s outstanding about putting systems and process in place as well as managing and supporting their use. At the strategic level, she’s a clear thinker and leader. As a manager, she expects high quality from her team while giving them autonomy. She actively supports innovation and promotes appropriately.
