UPCOMING EVENTS
i3 and its mission:
We identify emerging needs, encourage innovation, and make a meaningful impact on our Nation, its allies, and our community.
Event Purpose:
One of i3’s proficiencies is producing training for various branches of the military. This requires Instructional Systems Designers (ISDs) who leverage their educational experience and expertise to increase the effectiveness and retention of the training content. i3 looks for people from all different education backgrounds (right now, most are former public school teachers), so we’d like to share the opportunities we have with anyone who might be interested in using their degree in a novel environment!
