Background

About Ryan Barta

I recently graduated with a Master’s Degree in Industrial/Organizational Psychology and my passion is learning, teaching, and exploring the reciprocal relationship between the two. I am currently seeking full-time employment in the Chicagoland area or remotely for Training and Employee Development roles. Shortly after completing my master's Degree, I became involved in a small business project operating in rural East Africa. This project offered me numerous invaluable experiences in adult learning, training development and implementation, and intra-organization communication. When all was said and done, my contributions to this project resulted in 2,500 people having access to health insurance, with more people projected to be impacted by the end of the year. The data that my trainees collected and I analyzed helped the project expand its reach by allowing the organization to negotiate better prices with insurance companies. My greatest desire is to learn and teach at every opportunity, which is what motivates my passion for training and development endeavors. I hope to turn this passion into a fulfilling career; I will use my communication skills and academic knowledge to help people excel in their roles and be the best that they can be.
