Workplace: remote

Department: AlphaGov

Description

AlphaGov delivers public-sector consulting for cities, counties, school systems, special districts, utilities, and related agencies. Our work spans classification and compensation, organizational and operational studies, research and program evaluation, economic and workforce analysis, surveys and community research, and applied data and infrastructure research.

We engage experienced practitioners as project-based collaborators. Engagements are remote-first with occasional client travel. When you authorize it, AlphaGov may name you as an expert collaborator or key personnel on proposals that match your expertise. We build ready teams for live pursuits — not speculative staffing banks.

AlphaGov is engaging an Instructional Designer for current community workforce training work with cities, counties, workforce boards, and community colleges. You will turn job requirements and partner input into training that adult learners finish and employers recognize.

We confirm scope, schedule, and fee with you before any engagement begins.
