<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>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 also serves as an institutional change leader, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, innovation, collaboration, and evidence-informed educational practice across all academic units.

<li>Support the Assessment Coordinator in producing the Annual Institutional Effectiveness Report's teaching and learning section the evidence document that WSCUC requires</li>
<li>Maintain CTL records of faculty participation in assessment activities, professional development sessions, and peer observation</li>
