Hello!
Our dog.
My name is Kristopher and I have been in the MET program for two years now. I have a strong interest in adult learning, and have explored previous courses from that perspective.
I currently work with the Canadian Red Cross in the Injury Prevention department. I am in a project management role revising the current courses (specifically the wilderness and pre-hospital programs); we have been exploring e-learning with more and more enthusiasm (our first test course will be ready
tomorrow for a partner) and I have the pleasure of being part of that roll-out.
The view from my office.
I live in Gatineau, QC (very close to Ottawa). I have a wonderful partner (celebrating two years of
marriage yesterday) and an even more wonderful dog (shh). We moved to the Ottawa River about a year ago and since then I have been working from my home office.
Looking forward to this course and getting to know my colleagues!
Kristopher

Hello Kristopher! I lived in Ottawa most of my life but I’m a recent transplant to Montreal. I created the writing content for an occupational health and safety module for the Canadian Standards Association a few years ago. The module was a 2D “serious game” with simple scenarios and commentary on choices. Congrats on your anniversary and best wishes on your project!

Nice to meet you. Looking forward to working together.

Hi Kristopher – nice office location.
I used to work at the Red Cross (Winnipeg location) many years ago. Can I ask what your educational background is? I do some project management activities now in my current job as a Clinical Informatics Specialist (I am a nurse by trade) and was wondering how you ended up down that avenue.
Looking forward to working witn you,
Deb
