SHORT CONSULTING ENGAGEMENT — CURRICULUM MODERNIZATION
Axyde Analytics, LLC seeks an experienced instructional-design consultant for a focused initial assignment supporting our response to the USPTO Patent Examiner Training Program modernization RFI (ACQ-26-9999). This is an Axyde consulting opportunity, not a Government appointment or an awarded delivery position.
INITIAL ASSIGNMENT- Review our approach to assessing and revising a 125-course technical/legal training curriculum.
- Recommend a practical course-inventory, learning-objective, SME-review and quality-assurance process.
- Provide a concise, accurately attributed account of your relevant curriculum-modernization experience and discuss a potential delivery role.
- Initial planning estimate: approximately 4–8 hours, with scope and fee agreed in writing before work. Additional work is separately agreed.
- Documented personal responsibility for revising one curriculum containing MORE THAN 40 COURSES. Experience across many unrelated small projects does not by itself meet this requirement. Technical, legal, regulatory or intellectual-property audiences are preferred.
Experience should demonstrate instructional design, adult learning, coordination with subject-matter experts, curriculum mapping, assessment design and implementation planning. Independent consultants and specialists working through a firm are welcome.
ENGAGEMENT AND TIMINGThe initial review can be performed remotely;
Midlothian, Virginia is Axydes administrative base. Prompt applications are encouraged because the RFI response is due September 30, 2026 at 1 p.m. Eastern. This is an estimated short consulting assignment, not full-time employment or guaranteed hours. Any selected consulting work is paid under mutually agreed written terms. Potential follow-on work depends on procurement, award, funding, scope and mutual agreement; travel or onsite work would be agreed separately.
An application does not authorize use of your name, rsum, client references or employers project history in a Government response. Axyde will obtain specific permission and accurately identify the organization and role responsible for any cited experience.
