Under the supervision of the Manager of Teacher Education Programs, the incumbent is responsible for designing, delivering, and assessing Inuktut language and culture courses for students enrolled in the College's teacher education program. Instruction may occur at the Nunatta Campus or in various field locations across Nunavut. Additionally, the incumbent may be required to teach other subjects beyond Inuit language and culture, including Inuit History and Identity, teaching methods, and other selected courses.

Offered in collaboration with the Faculty of Education at Memorial University of Newfoundland, the Nunavut Teacher Education Program aims to graduate bilingual and culturally competent teachers. This role plays a key part in achieving that goal by providing students with in-depth knowledge and skills in Inuit language and culture. Additionally, the incumbent will offer recommendations on integrating Inuktut and Inuit culture into all courses within the program.

The ideal candidate will possess a bachelor's degree in education or in a discipline appropriate to program offerings. Instructional experience at the elementary level and experience instructing and supervising adult learners in a post-secondary setting. Fluency in both oral and written Inuktut is required. Familiarity with the Memorial University of Newfoundland Bachelor of Education, Inuktut Language, Inuit cultural studies, and Inuit History and Identity courses of the B. Ed. Program is an asset.

As this is a term position for non-Inuit candidates, current indeterminate Government of Nunavut employees may be offered a competitive transfer assignment for the duration of the term if they are deemed to be the successful candidate, however this is subject to managerial approval.

Short-listed candidates may undergo a vulnerable sector check as necessitated by the demographics of the learners participating in the program.

An acceptable combination of education and experience may be considered.
