Office of Transformational Learning

Director, Center for Assessment of Learning

Reporting to the Assistant Vice President for the Center for Assessment of Learning, the Director, Center for Assessment of Learning (Director 2) is responsible for adult student recruitment, support and services and leads the creation of systems, procedures, processes and tools, and managing them for identifying, accepting and applying prior learning. The Director ensures seamless transfer of credits for college-level learning evaluated and recommended by reputable third parties such as ACE, NCCRS, CLEP, AP, NYU Language, IB and similar programs. The Director champions programs and initiatives that embrace and recognize learning in all contexts, particularly outside the traditional college classroom, including nonformal education, experiential learning, military education, prior learning and work-based learning.

This role is key to advancing the University’s mission of access and equity by advocating for diverse forms of learning and programmatic offerings such as micro-credentials and providing leadership in learning assessment methods and practices, including credit-by-exam, non-academic program review and portfolio evaluation. The Director functions collegially and transparently, grounded in best practices and academic research. As a higher education and adult learning thought leader and academic practitioner, the Director influences and shapes institutional policy and its application. This position requires extensive travel and a flexible schedule including evening and weekend hours. This is not a remote position and requires physical presence on campus as determined by the Supervisor.

Qualifications: Graduation from an accredited college with a Bachelor’s degree and minimum of four years of professional experience in higher education working directly with multiple departments and students is required. Preferred qualifications include: a Master’s degree; a minimum of two years of experience assessing prior learning or similar/related prior experience; a minimum of two years of experience with transferring college credit for prior learning such as JCT/DSST/AP/CLEP or similar/related prior experience; a minimum of 3 years of experience working with adult students; experience utilizing systems such as Colleague, TES and Slate or similar/related prior experience; and a demonstrated managerial role in higher education. Candidate must have strong interpersonal skills and the ability to handle multiple and competing priorities; excellent project management skills; and excellent oral and written communication skills

Candidacy review begins immediately and continues until appointment is made. Please submit your cover letter, resume/CV and contact information for three professional references. Official transcripts are required prior to the starting date of employment.
