My Story
For more than 35 years, MMV Educational Consulting has been shaped by a commitment to creating education that changes lives.
I began my career developing English language programs for immigrants and refugees rebuilding their lives in Alberta. When I moved into private career colleges, I recognized many of the same learners: people seeking practical training, new careers, or a pathway back to professions they had practised elsewhere.
That connection shaped my approach to curriculum and institutional development. As learning moved from classrooms into hybrid and online settings, I expanded my work to include digital instruction, competency-based assessment, licensing, and quality assurance. Throughout, my focus has been on making programs both accessible to learners and credible to employers and regulators.
Today, through MMV Educational Consulting, I help colleges and workforce training organizations respond to what is changing—and prepare for what comes next. That includes thoughtful use of AI and learning technology while maintaining strong educational standards and meaningful learner outcomes.
My Approach
I build curriculum and compliance systems that work in practice—for the educators who deliver them, the learners they serve, and the regulators who review them. I work alongside your team, share the reasoning behind each decision, and leave you with resources you can use and maintain.
My experience across education and regulation helps me connect instructional quality with licensing requirements. Whether the work involves a new program, a compliance challenge, or institutional growth, my aim is to strengthen your team’s capacity and deliver a solution that lasts.
