The University of Virginia’s Center for Teaching Excellence (CTE) seeks applicants for the Associate Director of Inclusive Pedagogy Initiatives (ADIPI).
The CTE was established in 1990 and is dedicated to building a collegial community, enhancing teaching and learning and fostering teaching innovation at all levels and in all academic disciplines. The CTE is a nationally recognized, mature, well-resourced and growing center for teaching and learning that advances UVA’s teaching mission by expanding inclusive teaching praxis; improving students’ learning, engagement and sense of belonging; and increasing instructors’ joy of teaching. Boasting an impressive tenure amongst employees, the CTE is a fantastic place to be employed. The supportive work environment and ability to enact impactful and meaningful work are often cited as key reasons to join and stay. The CTE works closely with all members of the UVA teaching community, including tenure-eligible, tenured, and academic general faculty; administrators and staff; and postdoctoral fellows, graduate student teaching assistants and undergraduate instructors. In addition to working with individual instructors, CTE staff and faculty partner with a diverse range of University programs, units and committees to collaboratively support and advance their and the institution’s teaching priorities. Holding the belief that effective teaching and educational development are inherently inclusive, the CTE actively seeks to support the learning of all students and faculty, especially those who have historically been minoritized and underserved by higher education.
