As a Distance Learning Specialist, you typically won't be expected to be a subject matter expert in all educational areas. However, you will be expected to work harmoniously with frontline educators distilling information about tasks and processes and documenting the information, and then translating it into learning courses and materials. By proposing this question to you, your interviewer wants to learn about your collaborations with educators as subject matter experts. Describe how you achieve success through cooperative efforts.

"Over the course of my career, I have worked with a wide variety of educators with great success. In fact, I work to collaborate with them regularly in my current role. I develop the materials and the educators are the experts providing the content. It's important that we build trust together. I aim to be knowledgeable, friendly and honest, and I expect the same in return from them. I deliver on my word and don't hesitate to communicate any feedback I have for them."
