Career Opportunity
If you are an experienced Learning Designer or Instructional Designer in Kenya, this opportunity is worth a closer look.
The African Management Institute (AMI) is building a flexible pool of Learning Design contractors in Kenya and South Africa.
Rather than looking for someone who simply waits for instructions, AMI is looking for designers who can take a brief, work independently and carry the design process through to delivery-ready learning materials.
That makes this more than just another Learning Design opportunity.
What is AMI looking for?
The opportunity is aimed at Learning Designers who are comfortable taking ownership of their work.
- Bring solid experience in Learning or Instructional Design
- Take a brief and work with minimal hand-holding
- Manage timelines, deliverables and competing priorities
- Identify potential issues early and address them before they become problems
- Develop high-quality, delivery-ready learning materials
- Apply sound learning design principles to real-world learning needs
For professionals who enjoy project-based work and value flexibility, the contractor model could be particularly attractive.
Why this opportunity caught our attention
There is an important shift happening in Learning Design.
Employers and clients increasingly need designers who can do more than produce slides, storyboards or e-learning modules.
They need people who can understand the learning problem, make appropriate design decisions, manage the work and deliver a complete solution.
That means independent thinking, communication, project management and learning design judgement are becoming increasingly important alongside technical production skills.
For Learning Designers looking to move towards consulting or project-based work, opportunities like this can also help build a stronger portfolio of real-world assignments.
