<p><span>Position: </span><span>Director, Centre for Teaching & Learning (CTL)</span><br></p><br>
<p><span>Classification:</span> Director Level<br><span>Reports To:</span> Vice President for Academic Affairs <br><span>About The American International University</span></p><br>
<p>American International University (AIU) is a private institution in Kuwait, founded in 2019, offering undergraduate programs in Engineering, Architecture and Design, Business Administration, Arts and Sciences, and Education, delivered in English on the American model of higher education. AIU serves a community of over 3,000 students and is executing the RISE Strategy 2026–2030 a five-year institutional transformation anchored in research development, WSCUC international accreditation, student success, and community engagement.</p><br>
<p>Teaching and learning excellence is one of the University's principal strategic foundations and an essential enabler of every pillar of the RISE Strategy. Without it, research does not flourish, accreditation evidence is weak, students do not succeed, and employability outcomes disappoint. The Director of the Centre for Teaching & Learning is the person who builds, sustains, and continuously improves that foundation making this one of the most consequential academic leadership appointments AIU will make.</p><br> <p>For more information, visit: www.aiu.edu.kw<br></p><br>
<p><span>Department Profile</span></p><br>
<p>The Centre for Teaching & Learning (CTL) is AIU's institutional hub for teaching excellence, faculty development, and learning innovation. It operates under the Office of the VPAA and serves all five schools and the Foundation Programme working with over 120 full-time faculty and a growing adjunct complement. The CTL is newly established as one of AIU's strategic academic support centres under the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. The Director serves as its founding leader, responsible for building the Centre's programmes, culture, partnerships, and institutional reputation from the ground up.</p><br> <p><span>The CTL carries three interconnected institutional mandates at AIU:</span></p><br>
<ol>
<li>Faculty Excellence & Development: Building a culture of teaching excellence across AIU through structured professional development, peer observation, new faculty induction, individual coaching, and the scholarship of teaching and learning.</li>
<li>Learning Innovation & Digital Education: Advancing instructional design, educational technology integration, and evidence-based pedagogy ensuring that every AIU course, regardless of modality, reflects current best practice and produces documented student learning outcomes.</li>
<li>Assessment, Accreditation & Institutional Evidence: Generating, curating, and maintaining the teaching and learning evidence that WSCUC accreditation requires the CTL Knowledge Repository, SLO assessment data, faculty development participation records, and the annual Teaching & Learning Impact Report.</li>
</ol> <p><span>Scope of Work</span><br></p><br>
<p>The Director of the Centre for Teaching & Learning provides strategic and operational leadership across five interconnected domains all of which must function simultaneously and reinforce each other. The Director is simultaneously a faculty developer, an instructional designer, an assessment specialist, a grant administrator, and an institutional evidence builder. The Director also serves as an institutional change leader, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, innovation, collaboration, and evidence-informed educational practice across all academic units. This is not a role for a specialist who does one of these well; it is a role for a leader who does all of them, and who can build a centre that extends their capacity through institutional culture and peer networks.</p><br> <p><span>Key Responsibilities</span></p><br>
<p><span>1. Faculty Professional Development</span></p><br>
<ul>
<li>Design, deliver, and continuously evaluate a structured, evidence-based faculty development programme across AIU covering evidence-based pedagogy, inclusive teaching, active learning, hybrid and online instruction, AI in teaching, student assessment design, and academic writing for publication</li>
<li>Lead the New Faculty Induction Programme each September a structured, multi-day orientation covering AIU's mission and RISE Strategy, the SLO assessment cycle, course file requirements, LMS and technology tools, academic freedom, shared governance, and the CTL's services</li>
<li>Establish and facilitate Faculty Learning Communities peer groups organised around shared teaching interests, disciplinary challenges, or pedagogical themes as the primary vehicle for sustained, collegial professional development</li>
<li>Coordinate and manage the peer observation of teaching cycle providing the framework, training observers, facilitating feedback conversations, and maintaining confidential records that support faculty development without functioning as a surveillance mechanism</li>
<li>Provide individual faculty consultations on course design, assessment strategy, student engagement, and teaching effectiveness functioning as a trusted advisor, not an evaluator</li>
<li>Develop and maintain the CTL professional development calendar, ensuring that sessions are scheduled at times accessible to all faculty including those with heavy teaching loads, offered in formats appropriate to different needs, and evaluated for effectiveness after each cycle</li>
<li>Coordinate academic leadership development workshops for Programme Coordinators, Department Chairs, Associate Deans and Deans in collaboration with the Office of Faculty Affairs.</li>
<li>Develop an institutional teaching certification pathway aligned with the UK Professional Standards Framework (Advance HE) or equivalent international framework.</li>
</ul> <p> <span>2. </span><span>Instructional Design & Educational Technology</span></p><br>
<ul>
<li>Lead instructional design support for AIU's academic programmes assisting Deans, Department Chairs, and individual faculty in designing courses that align learning outcomes with instructional activities and assessment methods, regardless of delivery modality</li>
<li>Advance AIU's capacity in online and hybrid course design building internal expertise, establishing course quality standards, and ensuring that digital learning experiences are as rigorous and engaging as in-person instruction</li>
<li>Coordinate with the CTO and Digital Transformation Office on educational technology adoption evaluating new tools for pedagogical value, training faculty in their use, and ensuring that technology serves learning goals rather than displacing them</li>
<li>Develop and maintain a practical institutional policy on the use of Generative AI in teaching and learning balancing innovation with academic integrity, and ensuring that faculty understand how to design assessments that remain valid in an AI-enabled environment</li>
<li>Build and maintain the CTL Knowledge Repository a curated collection of teaching resources, case studies, grant outputs, peer observation frameworks, and WASC evidence artefacts available to all AIU faculty and retained as institutional evidence</li>
<li>Work collaboratively with the Office of Graduate Studies in developing high-quality graduate teaching and supervision practices.</li>
<li>Support the design of microcredentials, executive education and lifelong learning initiatives where appropriate.</li>
</ul> <p><span>3. Student Learning Outcomes Assessment Training</span></p><br>
<ul>
<li>Coordinate AIU's institutional SLO assessment Training, working with the Assessment Coordinator and VPAA to ensure that faculty collect, analyse, and document PLO achievement data each semester using consistent, valid assessment methods</li>
<li>Train faculty in SLO/PLO design, assessment method selection, rubric development, and close-the-loop documentation transforming assessment from an administrative requirement into a genuine teaching improvement tool</li>

<p><span>Position: </span><span>Director, Office of Faculty Affairs (OFA)</span><br></p><br>
<p><span>Classification:</span> Director Level<br><span>Reports To:</span> Vice President for Academic Affairs</p><br> <p><span>About The American International University</span></p><br>
<p>American International University (AIU) is a private institution in Kuwait, founded in 2019, offering undergraduate programs in Engineering, Architecture and Design, Business Administration, Arts and Sciences, and Education, delivered in English on the American model of higher education. AIU serves a community of over 3,000 students and is executing the RISE Strategy 2026–2030 a five-year institutional transformation anchored in research development, WSCUC international accreditation, student success, and community engagement.</p><br>
<p>Faculty excellence is one of AIU's greatest strategic assets and an essential enabler of every pillar of the RISE Strategy. Outstanding teaching, meaningful scholarship, effective service, academic leadership, and institutional innovation all depend upon attracting, supporting, developing, recognising, and retaining exceptional faculty. The Director of the Office of Faculty Affairs is responsible for creating an institutional environment in which faculty thrive throughout their academic careers, strengthening academic excellence, shared governance, leadership development, and institutional effectiveness while supporting AIU's ambitions for WSCUC accreditation and long-term academic distinction.</p><br> <p>For more information, visit: www.aiu.edu.kw</p><br> <p><span>Department Profile</span></p><br>
<p>The Office of Faculty Affairs (OFA) is AIU's institutional hub for faculty success, academic engagement, academic career development, shared governance, and institutional faculty excellence. Operating under the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs, the Office serves all Schools, the Foundation Programme, and future graduate programmes, working collaboratively with more than 120 full-time faculty together with adjunct, visiting, and future clinical faculty.</p><br> <p>The Office is established as one of AIU's strategic academic support units under the RISE Strategy, with the Director serving as its founding leader responsible for developing the Office's policies, programmes, partnerships, operational culture, and long-term strategic direction. Working collaboratively with Human Resources, Deans, Department Chairs, the Centre for Teaching & Learning, the Office of Graduate Studies, the Office of Research and Scholarly Activity, the Registrar, Quality Assurance, Student Affairs, Library Services, and other institutional units, the Director ensures that faculty-related academic matters are coordinated consistently across the University while maintaining a clear distinction from Human Resources' employment responsibilities.</p><br> <p>The Office complements—but does not replace—the responsibilities of Human Resources. Human Resources remains responsible for employment administration, contracts, payroll, benefits, immigration, and employee relations, while the Office of Faculty Affairs provides academic leadership, coordination, guidance, and support on matters relating to faculty success, academic development, governance, academic progression, recognition, and institutional effectiveness.</p><br> <p><span>The Office carries four interconnected institutional mandates:</span></p><br>
<p><span>1. Faculty Success & Engagement</span></p><br>
<p>Building an academic environment in which faculty are supported throughout every stage of their academic careers through mentoring, engagement, recognition, wellbeing, professional growth, leadership development, and institutional support.</p><br> <p><span>2. Academic Career Development & Recognition</span></p><br>
<p>Supporting promotion, academic rank progression, leadership development, succession planning, recognition, awards, and continuous academic growth.</p><br> <p><span>3. Academic Policies & Shared Governance</span></p><br>
<p>Promoting transparent governance, institutional consistency, academic integrity, faculty participation in decision-making, and continuous policy development.</p><br> <p><span>4. Institutional Excellence & Faculty Effectiveness</span></p><br>
<p>Supporting institutional effectiveness, accreditation, academic quality, faculty engagement, strategic planning, and cross-functional collaboration in support of AIU's long-term academic mission.</p><br> <p><span>Scope of Work</span></p><br>
<p>The Director of the Office of Faculty Affairs provides strategic and operational leadership across six interconnected institutional domains that collectively support faculty excellence, institutional effectiveness, academic quality, and shared governance.</p><br> <p>The Director serves as the University's principal academic administrator for faculty affairs, providing leadership in the development and implementation of faculty-related academic policies, career development initiatives, governance structures, recognition programmes, academic support services, and institutional planning. The Director is simultaneously a strategic advisor, policy leader, governance specialist, faculty advocate, organisational developer, and institutional partner. This is not a role focused on employment administration; rather, it is a leadership position responsible for creating an institutional environment in which faculty are supported, recognised, developed, and empowered to contribute fully to AIU's academic mission.</p><br> <p>The Director operates primarily as a strategic leader, advisor, facilitator, and institutional partner, working collaboratively with Human Resources and other University offices rather than duplicating their operational responsibilities.</p><br> <p>This position requires a leader capable of building relationships across the institution, promoting collaboration, supporting faculty success, and ensuring that faculty-related academic processes are fair, transparent, consistent, and aligned with AIU's strategic priorities.</p><br> <p><span>Key Responsibilities</span></p><br> <p><span>1.
