Do you enjoy creating immersive and interactive e-learning solutions? You’re going to love this opportunity in Georgia!
While Georgian universities have integrated e-learning into their academic frameworks, it has not yet been integrated into secondary public schools or community colleges, leaving students without the necessary digital skills to succeed. As e-learning and hybrid learning technologies continue to emerge, faculty and staff are eager to develop their own digital skills, especially since e-learning specialists are scarce in the country.
As an E-Learning Specialist, you will collaborate with faculty to develop interactive e-learning courses and strengthen digital skills among both students and teachers. Alongside your colleagues, you will assess course performance analytics and make enhancements.
