Job Description

Madison College is seeking a limited-term Curriculum Designer to help advance Vision 2030 by strengthening how employees learn, design, and deliver inclusive experiences. This role focuses on developing high-quality, instructor-led and on-demand learning that builds practical knowledge of digital accessibility, universal design, and related compliance expectations, supporting a more accessible and equitable college environment.

Rather than requiring deep subject-matter expertise on day one, we are looking for a curious, adaptable learning professional who can research emerging standards, collaborate with campus partners, and translate complex concepts into clear, engaging curriculum. Success in this role comes from the ability to learn quickly, design thoughtfully, and create training that empowers employees to build accessible materials and experiences with confidence.

Madison College believes every team member brings unique perspectives and experiences that enhance our ability to understand and engage with the world, tackle challenges, and develop innovative solutions.

POSITION DETAILS: This position is a full time, limited-term position ending on June 30, 2026. Many of our excellent full-time benefits are available including health, dental and vision. This position offers the potential for a hybrid work schedule (up to three days remote per week). Remote work options are subject to change per Madison College policy.

DEADLINE: This position will be open until filled, with a first review date of February 8, 2026, at 11:59 pm. After this date, the recruitment may close without further notice. Interested applicants are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
