About The Position

As an instructional designer and developer, you know that even the best tools and processes can’t have an impact without the right education. Constructing an interactive course that teaches critical information requires a real passion for understanding the needs of your customer. We have an opportunity for an instructional designer and developer who is committed to solving some of the Army's toughest challenges by crafting effective training. On our team, you’ll work with SMEs, instructors, and product developers to capture your customer’s training needs and recommend 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 materials and support tools. You’ll build training material with instructors following the ADDIE model. You’ll use your technical skills, creativity, and experience to come up with new instructional design ideas to develop an engaging, interactive learning experience on screen or in a classroom. You’ll use cutting-edge multimedia technologies and strategies, including blended learning, screen casting, and gamification, to shape a successful learning environment. You know communication is key, so you’ll meet with SMEs, instructors, stakeholders 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. We focus on growing as a team to make the best solutions for our customers, so you’ll learn new tools and skills to develop a creative learning experience that will engage students. Work with us as we improve the Army through learner-centered instructional design and development.
