MattScaggs
Ben is an Associate Director at AT&T responsible
for training design and development. Over the
last eight years he has led teams responsible
for systems, product, sales, and leadership
training. Ben received his Masters degree in
Instructional Design from the University of
Georgia and continues to contribute to the
educational community by speaking at university
seminars, local industry chapter meetings, and
industry conferences. Before joining AT&T, Ben
worked for a couple small technology incubator
companies and this background has influenced
his drive for adopting and championing new
technologies for corporate training. At AT&T, he
has played a leadership role in the adoption of
mobile learning, social media in training, and the
movement away from paper and towards tablets in
classroom settings. He’s driven by the challenge to
improve business metrics through the successful
implementation of technology in training.
Matt is an Lead Designer at AT&T, responsible
for a team of designers creating product training
for customer facing sales and management
employees. Matt has been with AT&T for over 12
years, garnering successful experience initially in
multiple inside and outside sales and management
roles. For the previous six years, he has been
actively engaged with learning and development,
initially by facilitating leader led learning to sales,
support, and management roles with new hire
and strategic product curriculum. Most recently,
he has spent the previous three years designing
learning to support the deployment of new
consumer products and services. Outside of work,
Matt cherishes time spent with his beautiful wife
and two children. He also enjoys serving on an
advisory board for a local school district and
outdoor activities in the Rocky Mountains.
