• Graphic design for infographics that are needed in the videos and Rise 
• Carry out all the editions processes that are necessary: both in Rise and for multimedia videos

• Deliver to the IFC the original project files: graphic and animated objects 

Required Skills and Experience

A candidate can be an educator or psychologist with more than 10 years of experience in instructional design for e-learning products, especially in developing these activities:
