Yorkville Education Company (which manages both Yorkville University and the Toronto Film School) began with a simple idea in 2004 offer flexible, rigorous, and career-focused degrees on campus and online to people who are on a purposeful path. With campuses in Ontario, British Columbia and New Brunswick, we equip our graduates with the professional knowledge, skills and designations that employers value.
Focused on providing a transformative, accessible and flexible higher education environment, our teams, from the President to the newest staff member, share a passion for learning, teaching, and growing as individuals and as teams. We nurture an inclusive, supportive, and genuinely kind work environment at our three campus locations.
If you want to shine a light on academic excellence, be empowered to make an impact on the transformation of the Canadian post-secondary education landscape, and work collaboratively beyond levels, join us.
Reporting to the Director of the Centre for Teaching Excellence and Innovation, the Educational Developer is critical to the implementation of the unit’s mission and strategic imperatives.
The Centre for Teaching Excellence and Innovation (CTEI) at Yorkville University and Toronto Film School (YU + TFS) partners with our faculty to embody teaching excellence and the delivery of transformative learning experiences for our students (2023-2027 YU + TFS Faculty Excellence Distinctive Capability). CTEI collaborates with YU + TFS faculty through a combination of consultation, workshop and program facilitation, resource development, integration of educational technologies, engagement with and dissemination of the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL), and advocacy for teaching excellence and innovation. YU + TFS currently has around 850 faculty who are involved in instructionally multimodal (on-site; online synchronous; and online asynchronous) teaching activities and/or academic support activities, and the Educational Developer will promote excellent teaching to improve student learning in these diverse teaching and learning environments across YU + TFS and in the provincial jurisdictions of New Brunswick, Ontario, and British Columbia.
This position works closely with CTEI team members as well as with members of the Learning Design team (Curriculum Design; Digital Design; and eLearning), YU + TFS faculty and academic leaders, and colleagues in other parts of the organization, including the Student Experience, Library, and People teams. This position is a largely remote position (with on-site requirements throughout the year for flagship programming and larger facilitation events as well as with occasional travel for academic, personal, and professional development and networking purposes) and will model a commitment to teaching excellence and innovation through the provision of exceptional development opportunities, programs, and partnerships across YU, TFS, and the field, networks, and communities of higher education.
We are looking to hire up to three (3) Educational Developers into CTEI at YU + TFS at this time, with the possibility of one or more of the incumbents being hired at the Senior Educational Developer level, depending on demonstrated leadership and scholarly experiences, backgrounds, qualifications, and capacities. We are specifically looking for educational development competencies/expertises in any/all areas of Faculty Excellence and Development; Scholarship of Teaching and Learning; and Digital Pedagogies and Innovation.
The closing date for this opportunity is Monday, February 5th at 900am est.
