Project Overview
A major insurance organization is implementing a new business integration launching in early 2026 and requires a comprehensive employee training program to support the transition. We’re seeking a mid-level Instructional Designer / Training Developer to collaborate with an internal subject matter expert (SME) to design and build blended learning materials that prepare employees for this change. The consultant will focus on content development and build, transforming existing materials into engaging, instructionally sound learning experiences.

- Apply sound instructional design principles to create effective, learner-focused training solutions.
- Ensure technical accuracy and instructional integrity while enhancing engagement and knowledge retention.
- Collaborate effectively with internal stakeholders, providing design recommendations and progress updates.
Deliverables
- Approximately 50% eLearning / 50% PowerPoint-based content, ready for launch in March 2026.
- All eLearning components built using Articulate 360 (Rise and Storyline).
- Blended learning program completed by February 2026, with additional development and refinement through mid-July.
Qualifications
- 3–7 years of instructional design experience, preferably within regulated or compliance-driven industries (insurance, finance, healthcare, etc.).
- Proven ability to translate technical or policy-based content into engaging learning experiences.
- Strong proficiency with Articulate 360 (Rise, Storyline) and PowerPoint.
- Experience collaborating with SMEs and cross-functional teams.
- Excellent communication, organization, and project management skills.
- Ability to manage workload independently and meet tight deadlines.
- GTA-based consultants preferred for limited onsite collaboration.
Additional Details
- Consultant to provide their own laptop.
- Licensing for authoring tools TBD.
- AI tools may be used (pending client policy confirmation).
- Candidates with extended vacation plans between November–February will not be considered due to tight delivery timelines.
