ROB HENRY, VICE PRESIDENT, EDUCATION

Council for Advancement and Support of Education

Talent management sits at the heart of CASE’s strategic plan – and we identified Tracy as our consultant partner to guide us addressing the question: How can we advance industry professionals with consistency and excellence through best-in-class learning that also meets our business goals for profitability and sustainability? Over the past year we worked with Tracy to develop a future forward global competency model that has resonated deeply with our multiple professional constituencies. Our stakeholders and volunteers were impressed with Tracy’s expertise and deep facilitation skills. We appreciate how she challenged our thinking and dug in with us as a collaborator to achieve our objectives. It’s been a  true pleasure working with Tracy and she has earned my highest recommendation.​

MARCI D. THOMPSON, CLO

Society for Marketing Professional Services

Faced with rapid market change, shifting expectations of the workforce, and the greatest demand for learning in our organization's history, we took on the challenge to innovate. Tracy King, CEO and Chief Learning Strategist of InspirEd helped us transform a significant legacy program into a dynamic competency-based learning experience. The ROI has been immediate and felt by faculty, learners and leader stakeholders.

MAURA DAVIS, SENIOR DIRECTOR, EDUCATION

American Gastroenterological Association

Tracy embodies the “teach a (wo)man to fish” model. We originally approached Tracy to work as a consultant, but she suggested this alternative - why not teach me how to do it for myself? Tracy’s crafted a series of building blocks, each block providing me with a skill that I can use to build our education strategically. From learner personas to revenue models, Tracy thinks about the entire business of education. For the first time I know where we’re going strategically. I joke that she’s also a therapist, listening to me recount the overwhelming amount of work and frustration. With a sense of humor and a patient ear, Tracy is supportive and engaged in my success.

MARC INTERMAGGIO, CAE

Executive President, BOMA San Francisco

The CREATE (Commercial Real Estate Alliance for Tomorrow’s Employees) Foundation has worked in the San Francisco Bay Area to deliver workforce development programs to bridge the commercial real estate industry’s talent gap.  Our college-level training program needed to be re-tooled for a better student learning experience and for more effective transfer of knowledge.

We engaged Tracy and her team to transform our program content into an interactive experience between students and teachers/mentors.  InspirEd delivered a new course outline, updated and refined session materials, and produced a new facilitator’s guide.  The facilitator training Tracy conducted provided a comprehensive overview and kick-off to the new format.  New trainer/facilitators were excited about the new material and prepared for the class sessions to start in the fall.

Tracy and her team worked very well with our subject matter experts and met all the deadlines.  We look forward to working with InspirEd on more projects to develop the San Francisco Bay Area’s commercial real estate workforce.

BRIT KRAMER, CAE, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Washington Society of Association Executives

Working with Tracy King, InspirEd, is resulting in a transformation of the Washington Society of Association Executives (WSAE) education program in a way that has exceeded my expectations.  Tracy helped WSAE tackle the single biggest organizational challenge  - how to deliver relevant education and networking that meets the needs of our time challenged executives. 

MICHELE MORGAN, CAE, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

NiUG

I highly recommend InspirEd. We rolled out webinars last year and I didn't have the staff to manage all of the moving pieces. Tracy and her team worked with me to develop a program that fit our needs and a complete guide so we could manage this ourselves in-house in the future. We had a great launch and received amazing feedback. The guide is perfect and we are now taking on webinars this year ourselves. Tracy and her team do an exceptional job and truly know the in's and out's of education development and online learning. Their support in rolling out our program was the best decision for our organization and allowed us to launch a successful program, give our members a great experience through this new benefit, and it set us up for success!

While extremely organized she is highly innovative and creative. While an expert in her subject matter, she creates room for discussion and growth and fosters the development of others. 

JOSEPH SAFDIEH, MD

Without Tracy I would not even have gotten past the starting gate. She kept me on track, provided much needed guidance, edited all of the work wonderfully and really turned our ideas into reality.

If you’re ready to level up, you need to work with Tracy.

SHERI SCHAFFER, DIRECTOR TRAINING AND PD

Tracy King is an incredible learning strategist, and an insightful and talented instructional designer.  She has a knack for making complex topics understandable and large projects manageable.  Consulting with her on a couple of projects has been invaluable to our organization and I highly recommend her!

BOB MOORE, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

American College of Osteopathic Family Physicians

I've had the pleasure of volunteering alongside Tracy over the years at ASAE. This summer, however, I had the need and pleasure of working with Tracy on assessing our eLearning program. After a staff departure, I called on Tracy to see if she could step in to assess the state of our eLearning program and help keep things moving along while I found a replacement. She was a Godsend. Her insights and observations were of critical importance to course-correcting several things. And she helped us "keep the lights on." You can't go wrong working with Tracy. In addition to be a great person, she's smart, easy to work with and goes above and beyond. I highly recommend Tracy.

KELLY LACROIX, DIRECTOR OF CREDENTIALING AND IMPLEMENTATION

International Hearing Society

Our society partnered with Tracy to design a new certificate program. Tracy provided us with the needed support from beginning to end and along the way offered helpful strategies to make sure the program was successful both for the society and the candidates.  She has a deep understanding of how adult learners process information and a creative approach to keep learners engaged.  Her design offered strategies to keep the content interactive, thought-provoking and fun!  Watching the program in action and seeing the candidates engaged was outstanding. I have no doubt that any design project Tracy is handed she will provide remarkable results.  She certainly made our program shine!

MARCELA CHAVEZ OCAMPO, SENIOR MANAGER VIRTUAL LEARNING

We worked with the InspirEd team to develop our first 7 eLearning courses. The experience was fantastic! They are a group of very professional Education experts, which made our experience developing this project incredibly easy. We really enjoyed working with them at a personal and professional level!

JESS HALVERSON BOWYER, STRATEGIST

CPA Center of Exellence

I've really loved getting to know Tracy and her work this year with her membership on the CPA Center of Excellence Advisory Board. Her concepts of learning strategy and the future of learning in the association space are unparalleled.

EDREA BRIONES, PD PROGRAM MANAGER

American Massage Therapy Association

It’s my absolute pleasure to recommend Tracy King at InspirEd. Tracy came on board with our organization for a project where we were on a very aggressive timeline and Tracy managed to meet all deadlines. Organized and diligent, Tracy quickly learned the subject at hand. Her expertise in writing and instructional design was a huge advantage to our team. She put these skillsets to work in order to create a comprehensive eLearning guide where she also successfully developed worksheets and assessment tools to use within the guide. She also had excellent rapport with outside sources where she was able to gather valuable feedback.

Along with her undeniable talent, Tracy has always been an absolute joy to work with. She is a true team player. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Tracy, and came to know her as a truly valuable asset to any team. She is honest, dependable, hardworking and an impressive writer.
