Consultant to Create Self-Directed Learning Content
Title: Consultant to Create Self-Directed Learning Content
Type of Contract: Fixed Price
Duration of Contract: 5 months
Closing Date: November 12, 2021
Winrock International is currently seeking proposals from qualified firms and/or individual consultants to convert existing materials into self-directed learning content while creating new content as needed.
Background
With the intention to inform migrant workers and stakeholders about safe practices that mitigate human trafficking and to identify situations that put individuals at-risk of human trafficking, USAID Thailand CTIP project, led by Winrock International, is creating learning content to empower individuals.
The USAID Thailand project created content and/or defined courses to inform six audience groups (migrants, Thai survivors, NGOs, government agencies, private sector firms, and Thai public). The existing content is primarily written in a format intended to guide facilitators in presenting this critical information to the audience groups. The USAID Thailand project seeks to convert this content into self-directed learning content that can be uploaded to an online learning platform and accessed directly by individuals from the six audience groups. Three learning modules were identified for each audience group (an estimated18 learning modules overall).
Objectives
Winrock International is looking for a consultant to convert existing learning content and/or generate new content related to counter-human trafficking with the objectives to:
Identify the essential content to be conveyed in each of the modules for each audience group; and
Create and/or format content that can be uploaded to a learning platform.
Responsibilities
The consultant will review the desired outcomes for the estimated 18 modules that have been identified. The consultant will then review existing content located on the Thailand Migrant Resource Toolkit website located at https://freedomcollaborative.org/thailand-toolkit and from other source documents to be shared by USAID Thailand CTIP project. The consultant will identify external resource materials for any information gaps not available on project resource materials.
Based on the desired module outcomes and the selected content, the consultant will create content for each of the modules. Content includes but not limited to learning information and quizzes. Learning information can be presented in PowerPoint slides, Word documents, infographics animation, or video. Quizzes will primarily be multiple choice.
