Bryan Chapman

1980-1982: Served a mission in Zurich Switzerland. Of the 120 missionaries, oddly enough, five of us went to Timpview and I was companions with two Timpview grads: Carl Anderson (class of '79), David Gillie (class of '79), Manual Kalt (class of '79. my comp), Jeff Peacock (class of '80, my comp) and myself.

1983: Married Nancy Dixon (met her at Reed William's wedding reception. Nancy is Reed's cousin).

1986: Graduated from BYU with a degree in Multimedia Communications

1989: Received a Master degree from Utah State University in Instructional Design, with an emphasis on Adult Learning Theory (one of the best decisions I ever made)

Have worked in the same field ever since, basically helping design learning initiatives that train very large numbers of employees over the internet for companies such as IBM (Global Campus), American Red Cross (online CPR and First Aid training for Millions), UNICEF, U.S. State Department (training embassy workers worldwide), Shell (training 140,000 employees), AVON (product training for 600,000 AVON ladies), etc.

I really enjoy getting to know about lots of different types of companies from the inside out.

I get the chance to speak all over the world at tradeshows, teach workshops and conduct webinars.

Until recently, I always worked for someone else, but in 2007, I started my own company called Chapman Alliance (see www.chapmanalliance.com). It's great to work for yourself, except in my case I have a terrible boss (me).

I play in two bands:

See www.escapeutah.com

It's a kick to still play and perform, although my travel schedule frequently runs interference.

I have a great family, great wife, great life!
