Daniel G.
eLearning Developer | Articulate Storyline & Rise | SCORM, Section 508
Daniel Gimness is an instructional designer and eLearning developer, and the owner of DGS Designs. I design and build eLearning that people actually finish — interactive Articulate Storyline and Rise courses, SCORM/xAPI packages that run cleanly in your LMS, and Section 508-accessible training that passes federal review. Through DGS Designs, I've delivered 100+ interactive courses for 50+ companies and U.S. federal agencies, including DHS, the VA, FAA, FEMA, TSA, the U.S. Army, and the Department of Energy — compliance training, software simulations, branching scenarios, and instructor-led programs converted to online learning. What I can build for you: • Custom Storyline/Rise courses — simulations, branching scenarios, gamified practice, knowledge checks and graded assessments • Section 508 / WCAG remediation — make existing courses pass accessibility audits • ILT-to-eLearning conversion — slide decks and manuals into interactive online courses • Training video and animation — Vyond, Camtasia, Premiere Pro, and AI-generated video (Seedance, Veo) • AI training and setup — get your team productive on ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, or Muse: setup, prompt libraries, and hands-on coaching (see my project catalog) Tools: Articulate Storyline 360, Articulate Rise, Adobe Captivate, Lectora, Vyond, Camtasia, Adobe Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Illustrator. Reliable, fast turnaround, and I communicate like a partner, not a vendor. Message me with your project — I usually reply within a few hours.
