Job Opportunity: Director, English Language Center (ELC)

Provide overall leadership, vision, and supervision for the English Language Center ( ELC), a nationally recognized academic program, with a business model mindset that serves multiple markets and diverse ethnicities, nationalities, socio-economic constituencies and educational backgrounds. Specific offerings include grant funded and fee-based courses as well as the English Institute (EI) for international students, which gives the program a dual local community service and international focus and mission. Provide overall supervision for a complex organization of administrative and support staff and instructors who value being a true learning community for the participants as well as themselves, both corporately and individually. Communicate (both up and down) a clear vision for continuous quality improvement that supports the strategic and fiscal goals of the Division of Continuing Education and the institution. Effectively manage the delivery of that vision through inclusive leadership of the program's staff and instructors to ensure that the college's community service objectives relating to non-native speakers and immigrant populations are met while also meeting or exceeding the program's fiscal targets. Work collaboratively with the credit divisions, the International Education office, Admissions, Student Support Services, and Financial Aid Services to determine student placement policies and procedures.
