Aaron Hunter
VP, Learning and Development, Digital University at Omni Federal
VP @ DigitalU | Driving Transformational Change through Digital Literacy
Vetted, self-driven, and a highly adaptable problem solver, I have spent the last 13 years managing projects and leading teams across the globe.

I currently build curriculum and facilitate strategic partnerships for a digital age within BESPIN’s Digital University. I chart a path for thousands of customers within 9 unique learning paths and 5 levels of mastery. I bring together major industry partners to validate and deliver strong credentials and a sterling reputation to our academic program.

I spent the last 3 years with Helios Defense Solutions LLC (HDS) as a Curriculum Developer where I developed curriculum and brought customer requirements to life. I wrote 1-8 week intermediate and advanced courses in a blended learning environment, ensuring the company remained agile to support its constantly evolving customer base.

Prior to employment with HDS, I served in the Air Force as an Intelligence professional for 9.5 years. The last position I held prior to honorably separating was as a Manager of Advanced ISR Systems where we focused on delivering ISR solutions to resolve problem sets all over the world. This work involved managing a team of 12 and their day-to-day engagement with various vendors and engineers during the development stages of new technology as well as oversight on the Acceptance and Testing phases of new systems, ensuring the multi-million dollar government contracts signed were delivered as promised.

I am always poised to jump at an opportunity and leverage my experience in Business Improvement and Customer Satisfaction. I use innovative thinking, open communication, and an unmatched work ethic to achieve extraordinary results.
