We are seeking a savvy and highly skilled Instructional Designer to join our Professional Development Team. This person must provide creative foresight and guidance to expand ICMA's Professional Development learning portfolio. Significant experience developing in-person and virtual instructor-led programs; asynchronous online, self-paced eLearning courses; and video production is required. Experience creating learning experiences that can be adapted for a global audience is a plus. The ideal candidate will build and maintain trusting, productive relationships with ICMA's subject matter experts (SMEs) to design and develop new content; revamp existing content into additional modalities; and collaborate with internal and external committees and the Conference and Events, Membership, and Research Teams to produce real-time, dynamic learning experiences as needed.

  • PROBLEM SOLVING - Identify problems, determine the accuracy and relevance of information, and use sound judgment to generate and evaluate alternatives and make recommendations.
  • WRITTEN COMMUNICATION - Compose, review, and edit materials for diverse audiences; communicate purpose in a succinct and organized manner that is appropriate for the context, time, and place.
  • WORKING WITH PEOPLE - Communicate with empathy; listen respectfully and actively; approach challenges from a different perspective; ask questions to understand; and reconcile conflict.
  • GROWTH MINDSET - Display a willingness to give and receive constructive feedback. Proactively seek out and stay informed of best practices, trends, and innovations in learning design.

  • Five (5) to eight (8) years of experience designing learning experiences for adult learners.
