About the Opportunity

Akicita is seeking a Training Specialist / Instructional Designer to build the training program for a nationwide Indian Health Service (IHS) immunization reporting initiative.

This is a remote, part-time engagement (approximately 360 hours over a 12-month base period beginning August 2026).

Why Join Us

Your training will equip clinicians and program staff across Indian Country to turn immunization data into action — and higher vaccination coverage.

What You'll Do

• Develop the overall training approach and plan for IHS providers, program staff, and end users of immunization data systems

• Design and build two training modalities: (1) a self-paced module learners can complete independently, and (2) an instructor-led curriculum and guide the IHS HQ immunization team will use to deliver in-person and virtual trainings

• Create the full training product suite: instructor guide, participant workbook/quick reference guide, slide deck, job aids, and case studies/practice scenarios

• Apply adult learning principles and address multiple learning modalities; map every learning objective to a job behavior (accessing reports, interpreting data, identifying coverage gaps, informing outreach and recall, monitoring progress)

• Deliver virtual train-the-trainer sessions to the IHS HQ immunization team and coach them on presenting the training to end users

• Refine and finalize the training package based on Government feedback, delivering editable source files for long-term IHS use

What We Do

Akicita Cyber LLC dba Akicita Federal At Akicita Federal, we specialize in supporting efforts related to National Security and Homeland Security. We provide a wide range of services and solutions that aid in protecting the country from potential threats and ensuring the safety of its citizens. Our services include intelligence gathering and analysis, border security, cybersecurity, emergency management and response, medical support, and other critical functions. We are part of a large group of Tiospaye (extended families) within the Tetonwan (Lakota) Nation who identify as Sicangu (burnt thighs). Long ago the Sicangu divided into the Kul Wicasa Oyate (lower people) and the Heyata Wicasa Oyate (uplands people). Our Kul Wicasa ancestors favored lands where the Maka Izita Ska (White River) empties into the Mni Sose (Missouri River), while the Heyata Wicasa lived higher up towards the Paha Sapa (Black Hills). In the 18th century, when French traders began to interact with our people, they translated our Sicangu name into French and began calling us the Brûlées. This is how we eventually became known as the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe. https://akicitafederal.com https://www.lowerbrulesiouxtribe.com/
