• GED

  I have worked in the corporate world for over 30 years after completing college coursework. My experience includes a variety of different positions - food service worker, retail, administrative secretary, accounts payable/accounts receivable, account representative, supervisor, sr. supervisor, manager, systems analyst, system administrator, business analyst, QA Lead, fundraising for Susan G. Komen foundation, PTSO board member, Homeowners Association representative, and volunteering for an animal rescue organization. I kept current on general subjects to allow myself to help my children when they were growing up. I'm known to my friends to be a news addict - Wall Street Journal, CNN, Time, Newsweek, USA Today, Washington Post, and of course local news.

• general computer

  I learned in college on an electric typewriter and became versed on word processors, personal computers, all word applications throughout my career. I supported a workflow imaging application for the last seven years as system administrator/business analyst/QA Lead in a national healthcare organization. Our application (data fields of claims payment information) was available over the internet to our members/provider population. I was the subject matter expert for over 500 users within the mid-Atlantic states region. I relied heavily on Excel, Word, Access, and Powerpoint in my last 20 years of work.

• grammar

  When working for the U.S. General Accounting Office as an administrative secretary, I worked with the editing/proofreading department for OT as they became overwhelmed with the amount of work they had. We wrote reports to the Congress via the Comptroller General on all agencies within the Federal Government. It was imperative I keep current on proper grammer and correct technical writing skills. I have continued to keep current with this throughout my career as I was responsible for writing documentation for various software applications to be used in formal training classes. We utilized ROBOHELP to house all documentation supporting numerous applications ranging from mainframe to "accessing the internet".

Reading aloud with all punctuation to another was the second level of proofing as we also were responsible for our entries into the Congressional Record.

• study skills

  To prepare for presentations in the corporate world, I utilize the same study skills techniques I used throughout highschool and college work. Memorization is imperative in the corporate world when speaking with vendors about theirs and competitor's products to conclude which product best suits your organization's needs. Word association for names is imperative also when attending conferences and being introduced to many individuals in a group setting, but it will be necessary for you to remember name, title, and organization the following days when presenting your material. Common sense comes into play also--quiet room, good lighting, no cells/games/texting, etc. when trying to "cram" for either tests, exams, presentations. Several books I've read have helped me refine my study skills to keep current with today's electronic and fast moving world.
