Change Management Program Lead

About The Job

The Change Management Program Lead is a temporary, part‑time, non‑tenured position for our Professional Development and Lifelong Learning Programs. The Post is responsible for aligning the program with the skill needs in the program’s industry or occupation. This includes interviewing industry experts, recommending program‑level curriculum (program name, program description, program outcomes, and course‑level outcomes), participating in course SME and instructor search committees, advising course SMEs and instructors, and recommending program and course revisions.

The Change Management Certificate will be a non‑credit professional development certificate program. It will consist of 2–4 courses. Each course will be 4–8 weeks in length and include 4–5 hours of asynchronous learning per week and a 60–90 minute Zoom session each week. Information will primarily be delivered using asynchronous media (e.g., recorded video) with synchronous sessions for interactive conversation and activities that invite learners to engage and apply information.

Learners will be assessed using authentic assessments that simulate real‑world application of skills.

The Program Lead will be initially appointed for a 4‑month period during the design phase of the program. That initial appointment may be extended into a development phase and an ongoing annual appointment. If the program is approved for development, the appointment may be extended to an annual appointment at .05 FTE.
