Background

The Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) is a US non-profit, tax-exempt, private organization established in 1895 that saves wildlife and wild places by understanding critical issues, crafting science-based solutions, and taking conservation actions that benefit nature and humanity. With a presence in more than 60 countries, WCS has amassed biological knowledge, cultural understanding, and partnerships to ensure that vibrant, wild places and wildlife thrive alongside local communities. WCS have now developed a Wildlife Crime Leadership Initiative (WCLI), a long-term leadership training program to develop the next generation of effective law enforcement leaders, who are committed to protecting wildlife, and who can collaborate across agencies, sectors, and countries to address the illegal wildlife trade.

Role Description

A Learning Management System Coordinator is being recruited to support the coordination of the Wildlife Crime Leadership Initiative (WCLI) Online Learning Management System (LMS), as well as support the administration of learning materials and delivery of courses.

Responsibilities

  • Producing guidelines for enhancing online content on the LMS: WCS has developed over two hundred lessons covering a range of topics that are ready to be enhanced by different country teams for implementation in different national contexts. The Learning Management System Coordinator will draw on their experience or conduct research into techniques to enhance lessons within the LMS and produce guides so that other WCS teams or their appointees can undertake their own improvements and contextualize content as needed, and then support the development of contextualized courses in the LMS.
  • Enhance lessons on the LMS: The Learning Management System Coordinator will apply the enhancement methodology documented in point 1 above to lessons within the LMS for the global curriculum. This includes adding translations, videos, graphics, adjusting the instructional design, adjusting activities and anything else that improves the learner’s experience. The Learning Management System Coordinator can also update images, videos and graphic materials as required.
  • Maintain repositories of learning materials: The Learning Management System Coordinator will develop and maintain repositories of learning materials for easy design of new courses, and collaboration with partners.
  • Supporting course delivery through the LMS: As WCS and partners deliver courses through the LMS, the Learning Management System Coordinator will support the administration of courses, and where needed, conduct simple formative grading activities using marking criteria provided by subject matter experts and provide regular reports on learner’s progress, drawing from outputs in the LMS.
  • Develop frameworks to analyze outputs from the current deliveries: The Learning Management System Coordinator will collate and analyze learning data through consultation with WCS teams, to inform course evaluations. This may include the development of bespoke dashboards or other reporting tools.
