 Education (</span><a href="http://wacenter.evergreen.edu/about-the-washington-center" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:"Franklin Gothic Book",sans-serif">http://wacenter.evergreen.edu</span></a><span style="font-family:"Franklin Gothic Book",sans-serif;color:black">),
 who will be responsible for this public service center’s external and internal operations. This full-time Administrative Faculty* position provides a unique opportunity to enhance faculty professional development nationally, across Washington state, and on
 the Evergreen campus.<br>
<br>
The Director will dedicate 50% time to advancing the work of the Washington Center: plan, organize, market and lead its National Institutes on Learning Communities and on Using Evidence to Improve Teaching and Learning, in collaboration with the National Advisory
 Board. The Director will also publish the Washington Center’s biannual peer-reviewed e-journal with the assistance of an editorial staff, collaborate with regional and national partners to promote learning communities and strengthen campus initiatives in equity
 and student success, and organize annual planning retreats for Washington State community colleges, colleges, and universities. The Washington Center director is supported by three classified staff and student employees.<br>
<br>
The other 50% will be dedicated to coordinating and guiding the new Learning & Teaching Commons at The Washington Center to advance faculty development at Evergreen in collaboration with a Faculty Fellow, an internal advisory group, the Dean of Faculty Development
 and the Vice President of Equity and Inclusion. <br>
<br>
The Learning & Teaching Commons at The Washington Center is conceived as an institutional space where faculty and teaching staff can cultivate practices and develop tools that will give all students the chance to excel and to meet the Six Expectations of an
 Evergreen graduate. The Washington Center director will collaborate with the Evergreen partners noted above to promote a generative culture of interdisciplinary teaching and learning that is student-centered, equity-minded, inquiry-oriented, and committed
 to access and excellence. The Director will also collaborate with Evergreen partners to coordinate summer institutes for Evergreen faculty, nurture campus communities of practice, and compile and present stories of work well done.<br>
<br>
Qualified candidates will be experienced in designing and delivering professional development aimed at helping faculty understand and address equity gaps and improve student learning outcomes. The Washington Center functions as the national center for undergraduate
 learning communities; therefore, qualified candidates will have experience working with faculty to design integrative and interdisciplinary curriculum and strong teaching teams. Qualified candidates will have knowledge and experience helping faculty use evidence-based
 pedagogical strategies, including nationally recognized high impact practices, to meet institutional goals for student learning and student success. Experience and skills in consultative and collaborative leadership with faculty across disciplines is essential,
 as is experience and skill in working with diverse and underserved student populations in higher education. Experience and skills in helping faculty use student learning outcomes assessment as an equity strategy is highly desirable. <br>
<br>
