SUMMARY: • Creative professional with more than ten years of experience in eLearning development. • Familiar with all facets of the eLearning production cycle, from conceptualization to project delivery. • Strong design and rapid authoring skills. • Experienced in developing eLearning courses according to accessibility standards. • Eye for detail and well-acquainted with quality control procedures. ABOUT ME: Hi, my name is Nina Seiler. I am a Graphic Artist and eLearning Professional from Berlin, Germany, living in San Diego, CA, since 2002. I always had a passion for art and the digital world. Thus, after moving to the United States, I decided to obtain a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Arts: Interdisciplinary Computing and the Arts from UC San Diego. After graduating in 2008, I completed an internship at Earthguide, a web-based educational outreach team at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego. During this time, I began to develop a strong interest in the field of eLearning. Soon thereafter, in 2009, I started working as an eLearning Developer for ScienceMedia, a San Diego-based company that develops and produces learning materials for the life sciences industry, with customers including AbbVie, Eli Lilly, Merck, and Pfizer. My role was to turn storyboards into interactive eLearning modules and to create any additional resources, such as workbooks and job aids. In doing so, I participated in all areas of production, including art creation, animation, text implementation, as well as audio editing and syncing. Simultaneously, I designed course interfaces, prepared and maintained interface templates, and performed all steps of rapid authoring production. Rapid authoring tools that I regularly used include Captivate, Lectora Publisher, SmartBuilder, and Storyline. In 2015, I was promoted to eLearning Manager. While I continued to perform some of my previous tasks, I was responsible for evaluating and recommending development tools. I also worked with internal subject matter experts and project managers to aid in determining the possibilities and limitations of a specific software application regarding project requirements. Before a course was delivered to a client, my task was to program course assessments and to prepare AICC or SCORM packages for integration into various learning management systems (LMSs). To test the published content, I performed a functional review using the testing platform SCORM Cloud. Through these reviews, I became accustomed to the challenges associated with designing eLearning courses for use on mobile devices. Often, I worked with project managers, clients, and software developers to identify the cause of issues and to find solutions. In addition, while administrating an international training program in LearningCart, I gained substantial knowledge of the inner functions of an LMS. In this position, I also trained new employees and assigned project tasks, while simultaneously overseeing deadlines. To monitor the completion of tasks and revisions, I used project and issue tracking applications, such as Trello and Jira. I am therefore skilled at working on multiple concurrent projects and coordinating priorities to complete deliverables on time. Finally, as a member of ScienceMedia’s review team, I took an active role to unite media development with quality control. As a result, and in combination with an eye for detail, I offer the ability to complete projects at an elevated level of precision. In 2017, I decided to broaden my skill set and started working as a self-employed Graphic Artist and eLearning Developer. I have worked remotely on a wide variety of projects, either by myself or in collaboration with large teams. Since my clients are located across the United States, I am accustomed to utilizing collaborative tools, such as Basecamp, Microsoft Teams, and SharePoint. Most of my work involves designing and developing Section 508-compliant course work, ranging from individual eLearning modules and documents to comprehensive training curricula. No matter what size, I enjoy the new challenge that each project poses.

When it comes to WCAG and ADA Section 508, I offer a comprehensive suite of services: Consulting, Auditing, Remediation, Accessible Development Training, VPAT ACRs, and Compliance Statements. As an individual with a visual impairment, accessibility is not merely a professional endeavor for me; it is both my mission and my passion. My daily reliance on the screen reader NVDA, both in my professional and personal life, provides me with a unique and unparalleled expertise in accessibility. This dual perspective of living with and working in accessibility underscores my profound commitment to ensuring that digital environments are inclusive and accessible for everyone. **Consulting:** Accessibility standards and guidelines can be complex and challenging to navigate. I specialize in demystifying these standards, explaining them in an easily digestible fashion. My consulting services include personalized walk-throughs using a screen reader to highlight accessibility issues from the perspective of an individual who uses assistive technology. I provide practical solutions and tailored recommendations to address these issues effectively. Additionally, I offer comprehensive training to ensure that teams can implement and maintain accessibility standards independently, fostering an inclusive digital environment. **Auditing:** All my audits are conducted manually, ensuring a thorough and accurate assessment of accessibility. I meticulously comb through the content in question using my screen reader and document all discovered issues in an Excel sheet. I then use a combination of accessibility testing tools, including WAVE, ANDI, and AXE, to further inspect the issues and test for color contrast. For each accessibility issue identified, I cite the relevant WCAG success criteria, point out the specific instance of noncompliance, and provide a recommendation for remediation. All my audits come with a comprehensive review session to answer any questions about the findings. This comprehensive approach ensures that all potential accessibility barriers are identified and addressed effectively. **Remediation:** If you do not have an in-house developer or would prefer me to implement the remediations, I can handle that. With expertise in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, I can directly address and fix the identified accessibility issues. My approach ensures that all solutions are implemented effectively and in compliance with WCAG standards. By taking on the remediation work, I provide a seamless service that not only identifies accessibility barriers but also resolves them, ensuring a more accessible and inclusive digital environment. **Accessible Development Training:** I offer comprehensive training in accessible development, equipping your team with the skills and knowledge to create inclusive digital experiences. My training covers best practices in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to ensure your projects meet WCAG standards. A key component of the training includes the proper use of ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) to enhance the accessibility of dynamic web content. By integrating ARIA roles, states, and properties effectively, your team can ensure that all users, including those relying on assistive technologies, have a seamless and accessible experience. This training is designed to empower developers to implement and maintain accessibility features confidently, fostering a culture of inclusivity in your organization. **VPAT ACR and Accessibility Statements:** After performing an audit, I can author an Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) using the Voluntary Product Accessibility Template (VPAT). This detailed report outlines the accessibility features and compliance levels of your product, highlighting areas that cover ADA Section 508 and/or WCAG standards. If you prefer a less formal route, I can also author an accessibility statement. By providing a clear and comprehensive VPAT ACR or accessibility statement, I help ensure transparency and compliance, assisting organizations in demonstrating their commitment to accessibility and identifying areas for improvement.Section 508 ComplianceUsability TestingWeb Content Accessibility GuidelinesDocumentationCompliance ConsultationSection 508ShopifyWordPressAssistive TechnologyAccessibility TestingCSSHTML - $36 hourly
