Description
Coordinator of Developmental Education Pedagogy
You will play a central role in providing academic and instructional leadership for developmental education pedagogy coursework in the Undergraduate Teachers College (UTC), ensuring that DEP courses effectively prepare teacher candidates for success in their program coursework, clinical experiences, and licensure exam requirements. You are motivated by leading ongoing curriculum design and improvement, supporting and supervising faculty, and aligning developmental education pedagogy coursework with evidence-based pedagogy and licensure competencies.
In this role, you will lead the redesign of DEP curriculum, direct and coach DEP Professors of Practice, map pedagogy licensure competencies, and establish candidate progress and intervention systems. You will use candidate performance data, faculty feedback, and candidate outcomes to continuously strengthen DEP programming and ensure candidates receive targeted, high-quality academic support.
If you are an academic leader who develops faculty as intentionally as you design curriculum, this could be the ideal role for you. You will build alignment across the UTC team to ensure developmental education pedagogy supports are connected to broader academic experiences, create clarity in instructional expectations, and foster a culture of data-informed instruction, learning, and continuous improvement.
Every course you refine and every candidate intervention you establish in this role moves Reach University closer to its North Star: a world where it takes skill and effort, not money or connections, to get ahead, ensuring candidates meet state-specific licensure requirements and succeed as future educators.

- Lead Curriculum Design & Alignment: Lead the redesign and continuous improvement of DEP courses to align with program coursework rigor, learning outcomes, evidence-based pedagogy, and candidate performance data.
- Ensure Licensure Readiness: Map licensure exam competencies across DEP coursework, analyze licensure exam performance data, and establish systematic preparation and targeted interventions for licensure assessments.
- Provide Faculty Leadership & Supervision: Provide direct instructional leadership, coaching, observations, and professional learning for DEP Professors of Practice to promote consistent high-quality instruction.
- Manage Candidate Progress & Intervention: Establish data-driven systems to identify, monitor, and support candidates requiring additional academic or licensure exam intervention.
- Drive Data & Continuous Improvement: Develop key performance indicators, analyze candidate outcome data, and implement continuous improvement cycles to optimize DEP programming and update academic leadership.
- Support Institutional Priorities: Partner with UTC leadership and perform additional duties as assigned by the Dean or Director of Academic Operations.
What You'll Bring to the Table:
- Instructional & Curriculum Leadership: Proven expertise in curriculum development in higher education, instructional coaching, and aligning coursework with evidence-based instructional practices for developing learners.
- Licensure Assessment Preparation: Strategic knowledge of educator licensure requirements, with experience mapping competencies and designing targeted interventions for high-stakes assessments in higher education.
- Faculty Coaching & Development: Demonstrated capability in supervising, coaching, and supporting faculty to deliver consistent, high-quality instruction.
- Data-Informed Decision-Making: Skilled in evaluating student performance and licensure data to drive continuous improvement, design interventions, and establish clear benchmarks in higher education.
- Collaboration & Communication: Strong communication, organization, and project-management skills to collaborate effectively across institution leadership and UTC faculty.
