Sr. Instructional System Design (ISD3)

• Design learning objects for interactive e-training solutions (for example:
• Captivate, or another Government-approved tools delivery).
• Test and provide Quality Assurance methodologies for modularized eLearning objects including defining validation criteria/checklists and ensuring evidence is captured in Government-approved formats as directed.
• Design cumulative eLearning practical exercises in a virtualized environment that mimics a real-world experience and provides learners an opportunity to demonstrate concepts presented in the course.
• Design formative and summative assessments to gauge the learner's mastery of key concepts presented in learning materials and ensure traceability between objectives, instruction, and assessment artifacts.
• Provide task leadership, manage workflows, and oversee junior designers
• Develop structure for and conduct mapping of course objectives to KSA and/or JQS requirements.
• Establish the learning pathways, prerequisites, and sequencing rules for the order in which students shall complete the evolutions and modules to support progressive mastery and appropriate cognitive load
• Background knowledge of complex hardware/software systems is desired.
• Establish and enforce instructional design standards/templates/style guides; lead design reviews and ensure consistent application across modules and releases.
• Coordinate with Configuration Management to ensure instructional design artifacts are version-controlled, include required revision histories, and support-controlled release packaging and change summaries for Government review.
• Lead pilot and post-delivery improvement cycles by analyzing learner performance data/feedback, documenting findings, and implementing approved revisions; coordinate retest/validation as required.
• Ensure Section 508/WCAG accessibility is designed into courseware, and that validation and remediation evidence is documented for Government review as required.
• Evaluate and develop high-stakes exams for web-based training.
