Everyone wants the benefits that trees add to a property, but trees are expensive. This course equips participants with a comprehensive understanding of the necessary components for obtaining tree donations, minimizing the need for costly tree purchases for their projects. It also guides interested parties through the process of organizing a successful tree planting project as well as providing a detailed, step-by-step guide on planting and nurturing trees, enabling participants to ensure the survival of trees, enhance property value, promote shade, and create positive environmental effects.
Many residents who serve on the HOA board or are interested in serving on the board have little to no idea of the responsibilities or the expectations of a board member. Board members are provided with no training when they begin to serve in this role which creates frustration and ineffective communication. These issues have caused unrealistic expectations from residents as well as frequent board member burn-out. This guide seeks to provide basic responsibilities and expectations of a board member for residents as well as current board members to maintain a more effective HOA.

Design Documents
Design Docs are the first step to developing a learning solution. Once a needs analysis is conducted to determine the business goals and learner gaps, a design document details a high level overview of what the project will include.
Storyboards
Storyboards show stakeholders the details of the course, slide by slide, making sure content is structured aligned with learning goals and is engaging for the learner. Stakeholders approve storyboards through feedback rounds before moving forward with course development.
