About Scott McCormick

Scott McCormick

Author's Bio

Scott McCormick has been handling eLearning and training accounts for Fortune 50 companies for over two decades. His experience on the front lines has seen training delivery platforms change from 35mm slides to handheld devices. He has been part of change management processes as global companies have experimented with and then embraced eLearning and have either sprinted or trudged into the digital age. Scott is a partner at The Iona Group and has been with the company since its inception in 1984.

Scott is currently in charge of Float and Iona accounts to the global leader in construction and mining equipment and the world’s largest insurance company. He has seen corporate universities sprout out of the Illinois prairie and has observed or committed an impressive array of mistakes in the process of transitioning to new learning platforms. He has an English Education teaching degree from Illinois State University and ended up teaching corporate America instead of high school kids.
