a real keeper ! - a practical definition of an ID

Jean Marc really has hit this one correctly. The field of ID must clearly articulate (excuse the pun, because this is on Tom K.'s page) our role, our value and how we can add business value every time!

in reference to:

"Here’s what I believe is an instructional designer: someone who through education and practical experience has developed the ability to investigate situations, understand problems and identify solutions that stress effectiveness and efficiency (for the organization and for learners). It is the person that sets directions and finds how best to utilize resources to achieve meaningful, and measurable, results."
