This role requires strong learning experience design knowledge, excellent program development and project management skills, and hands-on fluency with AI tools and emerging workplace technologies. You will create practical, outcome-driven learning experiences that help learners build relevant skills and apply them with confidence in real workplace contexts. Because AI is increasingly embedded across GA programs and client needs, you should understand how modern AI tools are actually used in the workplace and be able to translate that fluency into applied activities, labs, simulations, facilitator guides, assessments, and client-specific adaptations.
