Instructional Systems Designer
The Opportunity:
Do you want to develop training that will transform national security? As an instructional designer, you know that even the best tools and processes can’t have an impact without the right education. Constructing digital learning solutions that teach critical information requires a real passion for understanding the needs of your customers. We have an opportunity for an instructional designer who is committed to solving some of the toughest challenges in national security by crafting effective training.
On our team, you’ll work with SMEs 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 training material and performance support tools by 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. You’ll use cutting-edge multimedia technologies and strategies like gamification to shape a successful learning environment. You know communication is key, so you’ll meet with 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. 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. This position is located in Arlington, VA.
