Call for Talent: UPCEA Online Professional Development

UPCEA is seeking talented collaborators for its new online Professional Development initiative, which will feature certificate programs in the field of professional, continuing, and online education. This is an opportunity to play a pioneering role in the launch of this exciting effort.
Specifically, UPCEA is sourcing talent to join our learning community in the following areas:
  • Subject Matter Experts to serve as module developers and module facilitators/instructors
  • Instructional Design Fellows to develop a common module template for UPCEA online Professional Development
  • Instructional Designers to support the development of online learning modules
We especially encourage members of UPCEA to consider this opportunity to contribute to the professional development of your colleagues as well as to the profession itself. These positions are all compensated, contract, work-for-hire opportunities.
While UPCEA will continue to develop new offerings and seek additional talent in the future, applicants submitting materials before the close of business on February 14 will be considered for our first cohort of collaborators.
A detailed list of expected responsibilities and work timelines can be found here. To submit your materials, please visit the submission form.
