Job Title:

Instructional Design Specialist 1

Department:

Public Health | College Administration

The Instructional Design Specialist 1 supports accessible course development across the College of Public Health. Working under the guidance of the Instructional Design Coordinator, this role focuses on digital accessibility remediation, course build support, and quality assurance for online and hybrid courses.
