Trustmakers™, a division of Rutherford McKay Associates, is looking to hire a part-time eLearning and Marketing Assistant who has an excellent command of verbal and written Inuktitut (Syllabics) and a good command of English to review an eLearning course and participate in the marketing of that course.

It involves reviewing the new Inuktitut version of our Media Relations and Communications Training eLearning course to ensure the quality of the translation and the functionality of the site are up to our high standards. The person will also participate in the development and implementation of a marketing plan to reach potential course participants across Canada. It will also potentially include communicating with Inuktitut-speaking course participants.

The position is virtual. If, however, the person taking on this role is resident in the National Capital Region, they would also be welcome to work out of facility at 5480 Canotek Park, Unit 5, Ottawa ON (where Montreal Road intersects with Highway 174).

The successful candidate will be asked to sign a confidentiality agreement.

Background

Trustmakers™ (Rutherford McKay Associates Inc.) delivers its popular media relations/communications training course across Canada. We currently offer these courses in English and French, in-person, or online via teleconferencing and eLearning. We have a version of the course that is delivered entirely by eLearning (no “live” component). On our www.TRUSTMAKERS.training eLearning platform, this version has course code MRT-SDSP in English and FM-ADAP in French.

We are now in the user testing phase of a new Inuktitut version of the above course. We intend to offer it to our existing clients in Nunavut and Ottawa (including the Government of Nunavut) and other appropriate regions and groups.
