Request for Proposals: NACCHO Seeking eLearning Business Consultant

Jan 18, 2022 | Andrea Grenadier

Applications due Friday, February 25, 2022 at 5:00pm EST


Overview

NACCHO is seeking an eLearning business consultant to implement a process for meeting evolving eLearning needs, including the selection of a Learning Management System as well as the development of an eLearning business model.

NACCHO’s current learning management system, NACCHO University, utilizes Blue Sky eLearn’s Path LMS platform and houses a number of educational offerings from SCORM eLearning courses to recorded webinars that are aimed at local health department staff. The eLearning business consultant will work with NACCHO staff to design and implement an eLearning needs assessment and use those findings to make recommendations to consider the best fit for a learning management system moving forward – whether continuing with the existing platform, NACCHO University, or exploring other options.

To inform the LMS decision making, the consultant will also conduct a scan of current educational offerings and facilitate a process, along with the NACCHO team, to develop an eLearning strategy to help move NACCHO further into the virtual education space.

NACCHO

NACCHO is a membership association representing the nearly 3,000 local health departments across the United States. NACCHO’s vision is health, equity, and security for all people in their communities through public health policies and services. NACCHO’s mission is to improve the health of communities by strengthening and advocating for local health departments. For more information on NACCHO, please see www.naccho.org/about.

Contract and Budget

The selected consultant will enter into a fee-for-service contract with NACCHO to complete the activities and deliverables specific in the scope of work. The budget for this contract should not exceed $50,000. All deliverables under this contract will be the property of NACCHO.

Scope of Work

Performance Period: March 1, 2022 – July 31, 2022. The consultant will work on a fee-for-service contract using an invoice schedule that sets payments for appropriate deliverables over the course of the period of performance.

Intended audience: Recommendations provided from this work will be used by NACCHO to support our mission in strengthening local health departments

Activities/Deliverables: The 2 primary activities undertaken by the consultant are described below.

1. LMS selection: As NACCHO’s educational resources have grown in the virtual space, considerations for needs that extend past our current capacities need to be explored. The consultant will work with the NACCHO team to design and facilitate a process to determine current and aspirational needs around eLearning and make recommendations for platforms to meet those needs. Stakeholder from NACCHO and LHDs should be engaged in this process. Deliverable: Report that summarizes needs assessment findings and provides recommendations.

2. eLearning business strategy: The consultant will work with the NACCHO team to make recommendations for a business strategy that will position NACCHO as a strong provider of eLearning and virtual educational public health content.
