Education & Training
<section><p class="heading jdMain">Job Description</p><p class="heading">Roles & Responsibilities</p><div class="paragraph"><p><strong>About The American International University</strong> 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 2.0, a five-year institutional transformation anchored in research development, WSCUC international accreditation, student success, and community engagement. 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. For more information, visit: www.aiu.edu.kw</p><p><strong>Department Profile</strong> 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. The CTL carries three interconnected institutional mandates at AIU:</p><ul><li><strong>Faculty Excellence & Development:</strong> 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><strong>Learning Innovation & Digital Education:</strong> 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><strong>Assessment, Accreditation & Institutional Evidence:</strong> 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></ul><p><strong>Scope of Work</strong> 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><p><strong>Key Responsibilities</strong></p><p><strong>1. Faculty Professional Development</strong></p><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><br></p></div></section><section><p class="heading">Desired Candidate Profile</p><p class="paragraph"></p><ul><li> </li></ul><p></p></section>
