Job Abstract

The Opportunity:

Do you want to develop training that will transform national defense agencies? As an Instructional Design and Curriculum Development Specialist, you know that even the best tools and processes can’t have impact without the right training. Constructing interactive courseware that teaches critical information and tradecraft requires a real passion for understanding the needs of your client. We have an opportunity for an Instructional Design and Curriculum Development Specialist like you who is committed to solving some of the toughest challenges in national defense agencies by crafting effective training.

On our team, you’ll work with stakeholders and SMEs to capture your client’s training needs and advise them on the right learning solution to help them accomplish their mission. Putting the learner at the center of the training experience, you’ll design synchronous and asynchronous material or performance support tools. You’ll build training material with multimedia specialists, graphics artists, and instructors while following the ADDIE model. You’ll use your technical skills, creativity, and experience to come up with new ideas to develop an engaging, interactive learning experience. You’ll recommend cutting-edge multimedia technologies and strategies, including blended learning, screen casting, or gamification to build a successful learning environment. You know communication is key, so you’ll meet with stakeholders and SMEs throughout the process to discuss learning material and incorporate feedback. To ensure your solution is hitting the mark, you’ll collect and analyze results using evaluation methodologies such as the Kirkpatrick Model, then fine tune your training for maximum impact. You’ll be able to build your leadership skills as you share your expertise through leadership and mentoring. As a leader, you’ll identify new opportunities to build solutions to your customer’s learning needs. This is a chance to use your deep understanding of training methodologies to build a creative learning experience that will engage students.
