Paul Venderley

Senior Instructional Designer, American Honda Motor Company

Paul Venderley is curious about why some training sticks and some is forgotten before the learner reaches the parking lot. Too often, he has found that the difference comes down to the design process (e.g.: teams reach for a tool before they fully understand the learning need). Paul helps L&D teams slow down, ask better questions, and apply evidence-based design principles that reduce cognitive load, strengthen recall, and sustain learner engagement. Alongside this work, Paul helps bring together the Southern California L&D community through virtual events, project-based learning initiatives, and networking experiences that encourage the sharing of ideas and practical solutions.
