  • Explore and recommend innovative approaches, tools, and platforms to enhance the learning experience and improve learning outcomes.
  • Collaborate with IT and Learning technology teams to leverage technology and learning management systems (LMS) for effective content delivery and tracking.


Evaluation and Continuous Improvement:

  • Develop and implement evaluation strategies to assess the effectiveness and impact of learning programs and materials.
  • Optimally balance effectiveness, velocity, development cost, and technology debt of learning solutions
  • Analyze learner feedback, performance data, and key metrics to identify areas for improvement and make recommendations for design enhancements.
  • Continuously monitor industry best practices and benchmark against other organizations to ensure the L&D Department remains at the forefront of learning design excellence.


Qualifications:
