UNDP-PHL-00962 - Moodle LMS Instructional Designer - UNDP - PHILIPPINES

Tender summary

Introduction Description of the Assignment The Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), through its ICT Literacy and Competency Development Bureau (ILCDB), is actively strengthening community-based digital skills training nationwide. Central to this mandate is the enhancement of the Digital Transformation Centers (DTCs), which serve as the vital physical landing points for localized capacity development initiatives. To modernize and scale these efforts, the DICT is enhancing the Tech4ED DTC portal to act as the project’s digital backbone—a centralized infrastructure designed to stream standardized learning content and monitor learner performance across all DTCs. Crucially, the DICT recognizes that effective learning cannot be fully digitized; it is a complex process that often necessitates a tactile, social interface. Therefore, the project places equal emphasis on ensuring that local center operations are equipped with the capacity to deliver high-quality, blended training that perfectly complements this digital infrastructure. To support this initiative, the DICT-ILCDB is collaborating with Digital PINAS in the enhancement, customization, and integration of the existing Moodle-based Learning Management System (LMS) to the Tech4ED DTC portal. This collaboration enables the DICT to upgrade its current platform into a scalable digital infrastructure for managing and delivering nationwide training programs, while simultaneously providing Digital PINAS with a robust vehicle to reach MSMEs with targeted learning interventions and business development resources. The Moodle LMS is envisioned not merely as a content delivery platform, but as a dynamic enabler of meaningful and sustained learning. By complementing on-the-ground facilitation at DTCs with structured digital support, the system will ensure that capacity-building efforts translate into tangible digital literacy and improved enterprise productivity. The project requires two (2) Moodle specialists who will architect and implement the Moodle enhancement and integration: an LMS Technical Developer and an LMS Instructional Designer. Working together, these specialists will audit and enhance the existing environment to meet the highest standards of technical and pedagogical design. While the Technical Developer focuses on the robust infrastructure, security, and backend environment of the platform, the LMS Instructional Designer is responsible for the "human-centered" layer—transforming complex curriculum into engaging, automated, and sound digital learning experiences. This ensures that the enhanced platform is not just functional but remains intuitive and optimized for high-impact learning. Consequently, this Terms of Reference (TOR) specifically covers the engagement and deliverables for the LMS Instructional Designer. Objectives The overall goal of this engagement is to support the effective delivery of digital learning programs, enable comprehensive learner tracking, and facilitate nationwide capacity development for MSMEs and community learners. This will be achieved through the following objectives: 1. Define a clear and comprehensive strategy that ensures that the Moodle LMS enhancement is fully aligned with the operational and strategic objectives of the DTC Project. 2. Deliver a quality learning environment and instructional flow anchored on the seamless and effective functional and technical integration of the Moodle LMS into the Tech4ED DTC portal. Specifically, through the LMS Instructional Designer, this engagement will: 1. Establish a strategically aligned and user-centric digital learning environment that accurately reflects the requirements of the target learners. 2. Guarantee a conducive, highly engaging platform by instituting automated learning flows and robust assessment structures. 3. Ensure a reliable educational experience by validating functional logic and pedagogical flow through real-world pilot operations and user testing. 4. S
