MISSION OF THE POSITION

The Neuhaus Fellowship Program is an innovative initiative designed to address two critical community needs: developing a pipeline of certified dyslexia specialists and expanding access to high-quality, evidence-based intervention for students with dyslexia. The Fellowship specifically serves students while increasing dyslexia awareness and strengthening the visibility of Neuhaus Education Center. Fellows are full-time Neuhaus employees who receive comprehensive dyslexia training, mentorship, and practicum experiences through Neuhaus certification pathways, including the Certified Academic Language Therapist (CALT), Certified Academic Language Practitioner (CALP), or Certified Structured Literacy Dyslexia Interventionist (C-SLDI) tracks, with all training and supervision costs fully covered by Neuhaus. Candidates who already hold a master's degree may pursue the CALT track. Once trained and actively progressing through certification, Fellows provide direct dyslexia intervention and tutoring to elementary, middle, and high school students in small-group and one-on-one settings. Fellows also support the broader mission of Neuhaus by contributing to professional development, community engagement, and curriculum initiatives. This position has an anticipated term of approximately two (2) school years, or upon earning CALT, CALP, or C-SLDI certification, whichever occurs first. There is no guarantee of continued employment beyond that time. This is an at-will position, and either the Fellow or Neuhaus may end the employment relationship at any time. Neuhaus is seeking Fellows who are fully committed to completing the Fellowship program; demonstrating adequate progress toward CALT, CALP, or C-SLDI certification is a condition of continued employment.
