Background

About Ryan McTernan

A Senior Learning Designer with over a decade of experience designing, developing, and delivering effective learning programs that solve business problems and elevate employee performance. My expertise lies in full-cycle learning development — from needs analysis and curriculum design to instructional asset creation and evaluation. I specialize in creating scalable, learner-centered solutions across modalities, including eLearning, blended learning, microlearning, and instructor-led training. I’ve led cross-functional L&D projects end-to-end, partnering with stakeholders, SMEs, and technical teams to align learning outcomes with organizational goals. I bring a structured yet creative approach to every project — whether building a multi-module onboarding program, redesigning compliance training, or developing technical upskilling paths. I work fluently in tools like Articulate Storyline, Rise, and Microsoft and Google Suites. Areas of Specialization: ⊛ Learning Needs Analysis & Stakeholder Engagement ⊛ Curriculum Mapping & Instructional Design ⊛ Project-Based Learning Development (Agile & ADDIE) ⊛ eLearning & Multimedia Course Development ⊛ Storyboarding & Learning Asset Creation ⊛ Evaluation & Continuous Improvement ⊛ Blended Learning Strategy & Modular Design I’m passionate about creating structured, intuitive learning experiences that engage learners and make knowledge stick that supports long-term development. I am also passionate about implementing deep learning routines, optimizing work balance, and fostering personal growth. I’m looking to bring that mindset to lead program design, mentor junior designers, and contribute to strategic learning initiatives at scale. Let’s connect — I’m always happy to talk about learning, self-development, and everything in between!
