  • The desire and ability to work effectively with diverse groups.
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills in English, both verbal and written.


Additional considerations:



  • Candidates having previous teaching experience at the university/college level are most desirable and will be given priority.
  • Candidates having both a graduate degree and MLS(ASCP) certification will be given priority.
  • Candidates with qualifications to teach in more than one area or program will be given priority.
