Description
My guest this week is Amy Coupal. Joining Curriculum Services Canada (CSC) in 2006, Amy soon became the CEO of Learnography and its charitable affiliate, My Class Needs Foundation, in 2009. Amy’s career has been focused on learning and development across multiple sectors and disciplines. She is passionate about creating meaningful learning opportunities that positively impact lives and communities. Prior to Learnography, she oversaw the development of multiple teacher training programs (both online and face-to-face) at the Learning Disabilities Association of Ontario (LDAO). As a life-long champion of accessibility, Amy is proud of the many accessibility related learning programs at Learnography, including the free online training on the AODA called AccessForward. Her organization champions both accessible training in all of their work and has spearheaded a number of initiatives on accessibility, inclusion and diversity. Amy applies her broad education background, which includes teaching in Canada and Japan, to all national and international initiatives she oversees.  She holds a Masters of Education in Workplace and Adult Learning.
