Description

We are looking for the visionaries, the change-makers, the self-starters who are seeking more from their career.

In choosing a career with Yorkville University and Toronto Film School, you will have the opportunity to push boundaries, flex your creativity and inspire positive change for so many people.
Our core values put the student experience at the center of what we do, reflecting who we are and aspire to be.

AS OUR NEW COORDINATOR, CENTRE FOR TEACHING EXCELLENCE AND INNOVATION YOU WILL:

  • Support faculty excellence. You will be the first point of contact for faculty and staff seeking guidance on teaching strategies, course design, and learning innovation. You will respond to inquiries with professionalism and resourcefulness, connecting staff and instructors to tools, resources, and training that enhance teaching effectiveness.
  • Coordinate educational development. You will organize workshops, webinars, trainings, and educational development sessions on topics such as teaching philosophies, assessment strategies, active learning techniques, and inclusive teaching practices. You will schedule facilitators, help prepare materials, and manage logistics to ensure a seamless developmental experience for participants.
  • Maintain resources. You will help curate and update teaching and learning guides, toolkits, and online resource repositories to ensure faculty, instructors, and staff have access to current, evidence-informed pedagogies and practices. You will track resource usage, collect feedback, and recommend updates based on trends and needs.
  • Collaborate. You will work closely with Teaching and Learning team members, academic leaders, and other campus partners to advance teaching quality and innovation initiatives. You will assist with special projects, pilots, and research activities within the Centre, contributing ideas and solutions to enhance impact.
  • Track and report. You will monitor registration and participation in educational development programs and maintain accurate records of activities, attendance, and outcomes. You will prepare reports that highlight engagement levels, emerging needs, and opportunities for continuous improvement.
  • Champion teaching. You will promote CTEI events, programs, and partnerships across the institution, encouraging faculty participation in workshops, communities of practice, and teaching awards programs. You will identify trends in higher education teaching and learning, sharing insights with the team to inform programming.
