One of the defining features of the University College Strategic Plan is a new Center dedicated to expanding Tufts? commitment to social mobility by producing research and providing cross-school educational programming that promotes career readiness and advancement for learners at all stages and across industries and job roles. The Center will expand the existing work of the UC Professional and Custom Education team and be integrated into this more focused and robust effort to build Tufts? reputation within professional and workforce education. In mapping out career pathways, it becomes possible to identify gaps where Tufts might leverage existing content or initiate the development of new non-credit and for-credit micro-credentials, certificates, workshops, continuing education units, professional development units, and degrees for learners looking to build or enhance career skills. The Center will also serve as a research hub for andragogy (adult education) and workforce development, producing data and tracking policies that will inform future decisions and initiatives. Additionally, the Center will be a resource and partner on sponsored projects where research commitments are made, and professional and workforce impact is part of the mission. The Center is developing short, noncredit, courses targeting professionals with upskilling and reskilling needs in healthcare, public health, nutrition, and societal impact (non-profit) sectors. To aid with this work, the Center is seeking to hire multiple part time lecturers to design, develop, and/or teach content in the following areas: Change Management Risk Management Financial Management Project Management Basics Conflict Resolution and Negotiation Marketing Communication Skills Data Literacy Data Visualization Design Thinking/Theory of Change/Innovation Leadership
