About the Black Women’s Health Imperative
The Black Women’s Health Imperative is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing health equity and social justice for Black women across the lifespan.
Through education, advocacy, research and leadership development, BWHI works to equip individuals, organizations and communities with knowledge and skills that can contribute to improved health outcomes and address systemic inequities.
As part of its commitment to scalable learning and workforce development, BWHI is expanding its digital learning ecosystem using the LearnWorlds Learning Management System.
The organization has developed and continues to develop curricula, training materials, toolkits, educational resources and other content covering areas such as leadership development, health equity, maternal health, workforce readiness, community engagement and organizational transformation.
Opportunity Overview
BWHI is looking for a Learning Content Instructional Designer or Instructional Design firm with demonstrated experience in adult learning, e-learning development, behavioural learning science and LMS implementation.
The selected provider will help transform existing static and instructor-led materials into effective self-paced digital learning experiences.
The position is listed as a contract opportunity and is remote, making it potentially suitable for qualified professionals or firms able to deliver services remotely.
There is no fixed salary stated in the opportunity. Instead, interested vendors are expected to submit a proposed pricing structure as part of their application.
Key Responsibilities
The successful provider will be responsible for reviewing and assessing existing curricula, facilitator guides, presentations, reports, videos and educational resources.
These materials will then need to be transformed into engaging digital learning experiences based on adult learning principles and evidence-based instructional design methodologies.
The consultant or firm will also design and build learning pathways within LearnWorlds. This includes configuring courses, modules, lessons and learner journeys while ensuring that learning experiences work effectively across desktop and mobile environments.
Accessibility and inclusive-learning standards will also be important components of the project.
Interactive Learning Development
BWHI wants its digital learning content to be more engaging and interactive.
The selected provider may therefore be expected to develop interactive scenarios, branching decision-making exercises, reflection activities, knowledge checks and gamification elements.
Other learning components may include downloadable resources, video-based interactions, discussion prompts and guided practice exercises.
These features are intended to move beyond traditional static training materials and create learning experiences that encourage participation, knowledge retention and practical application.
Assessment and Behavioural Measurement
Another important part of the contract involves developing assessments and tools for measuring learning and behavioural outcomes.
The selected provider will create skills-building activities, competency-based exercises, scenario-based assessments, capstone activities and knowledge evaluations.
Pre- and post-assessments may also be developed to measure changes in learner knowledge.
The project also includes behavioural self-assessments, leadership and professional-development assessments, readiness assessments, learner-confidence measures and behavioural-intention surveys.
These tools will help BWHI better understand whether its courses are achieving measurable learning and development outcomes.
Required Qualifications
The ideal provider should have at least five years of instructional design experience.
Experience developing online learning for nonprofits, healthcare organizations, public health programmes, workforce development initiatives, leadership-development projects or DEI-related programmes would be valuable.
Applicants should also have experience working with adult learners.
From a technical perspective, BWHI prefers candidates with proven LearnWorlds LMS experience. Familiarity with other LMS platforms and course-authoring tools is also relevant.
Knowledge of SCORM, xAPI, e-learning best practices, multimedia development, Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and WCAG accessibility standards will strengthen an application.
What Applicants Must Submit
Interested vendors must provide a company or organizational overview, years in business, team structure, key personnel and relevant instructional design experience.
Applicants should also demonstrate their LearnWorlds experience and provide examples of previous projects or a professional portfolio.
A technical proposal should explain the proposed instructional design methodology, course development process, quality assurance procedures, assessment-design approach and behavioural learning measurement strategy.
At least three client references are required.
Applicants must also provide their proposed pricing structure, staffing plan, estimated timeline and deliverables schedule.
How Applications Will Be Evaluated
BWHI will evaluate submissions based on several criteria.
Relevant experience accounts for 25% of the evaluation, while instructional design expertise also carries 25%.
LearnWorlds LMS experience represents 20%, followed by assessment and behavioural measurement at 15%. Budget and value account for 10%, while client references account for the remaining 5%.
This weighting demonstrates the importance BWHI places on both technical instructional-design capabilities and relevant professional experience.
Final Takeaway
The Black Women’s Health Imperative’s remote instructional design contract represents an opportunity for an experienced instructional designer, e-learning specialist or instructional design firm to contribute to a major digital-learning initiative focused on health equity, leadership and workforce development.
With responsibilities ranging from curriculum transformation and LearnWorlds development to interactive learning, assessment design and behavioural measurement, the project could be particularly suitable for providers with a strong portfolio of digital education work.
Qualified professionals and firms interested in the opportunity should carefully review the official RFQ, prepare a strong portfolio and ensure that their technical approach, references, pricing and proposed timeline address all of BWHI’s submission requirements before applying.
