Indigenous Teacher Education Program - Kingston, Canada - Queen's University

Description

The community-based Indigenous Teacher Education Program (ITEP) represents the Queen's University Faculty of Education commitment to community-based teacher education delivery so that prospective Indigenous teachers can live and work in their First Nations communities while gaining the credentials to be Ontario certified teachers.

This supports our commitment to reconciliation by ensuring that Indigenous teachers work within their First Nations communities and beyond.

Reporting to the Associate Dean, Teacher Education, the ITEP Program Manager is responsible for the overall planning, development, and implementation of the on-campus and community-based programs, which will support the key goals and objectives identified in the Faculty's strategic plan and the wider University strategic plan.

The ITEP Program Manager will manage the extensive program's activities, which includes administration support, practicum, program liaison, recruitment and advertising, and financial support.

The incumbent serves as a resource person/liaison, ensuring information flow, and overseeing data processing and presentation activities.

The incumbent engages in financial planning and supervises account management, and interprets, modifies, and implements changes in procedures, policies, or standards.

This position requires sound judgment and a high level of discretion when dealing with sensitive issues.

A key component of this role is to support multiple locations across the province to ensure consistency in program delivery, administration, and planning.

This position requires occasional travel, including to remote Indigenous communities.
