Georgia and North Carolina Professional Learning and Education Specialist

$78k - $82k
Full-time

Institute for Curriculum Services

Title: Georgia and North Carolina Professional Learning and Education Specialist 
Position Type: Full-time
Location: Remote - Candidate must reside in either Georgia or North Carolina
Compensation: $78,000-$82,000 per year
Reports to: Director of Professional Learning
Remote Work Environment



 
Position overview 
ICS seeks a motivated, dynamic, and innovative education professional to join our Professional Learning team. The Georgia and North Carolina Professional Learning and Education Specialist brings ICS professional development directly to teachers across both states, leading workshops on the full range of ICS topics. The aim is more teachers who feel knowledgeable and confident teaching Jewish history, and classroom instruction that is accurate and nuanced.

A significant part of this job is building the relationships that make those workshops possible. The Specialist establishes and nurtures partnerships with districts, state and regional education organizations, community organizations, and the people who decide how professional development time is spent. 

The role also calls for real fluency in what's happening across both states when it comes to standards revisions, textbook adoptions, legislative and policy developments, and content development decisions. This person becomes our in-house expert on the Georgia and North Carolina education landscape, sharing what they learn with relevant ICS staff so that the full scope of our work, from professional learning to editorial, is informed by what's actually unfolding on the ground. That expertise makes the Specialist a valued partner to our Editorial and Research and Innovation teams, who depend on this kind of on-the-ground insight.

This position requires regular travel (~25%) and flexibility to work evenings and weekends for PD events.

About the organization 
The Institute for Curriculum Services (ICS) is a national nonprofit organization that enriches K-12 education by ensuring accurate, high-quality classroom materials and teaching about Jews, Judaism, and Jewish history. We do this by editing textbooks and instructional materials, developing standards-supporting lessons, and providing professional development for teachers around the country.

  • Keep the team apprised of key legislative and policy developments that impact our work
  • Identify, interpret, and share insights with relevant departments regarding trends impacting our work or opportunities to consider at the state and district levels

  • Highly organized, strategic, and detail-oriented, with a track record of managing multiple projects and meeting deadlines
  • Proactive problem-solver and collaborative team member

  • Comfort with CRM software or willingness and ability to quickly learn new software tools
