DEPARTMENT & POSITION

Learning & Leadership (L&L) Department provides education and hands-on technical assistance to individuals and organizations to facilitate transformative adult learning that inspires socially conscious change and improves organizational development and individual leadership. The L&L offers a bridge between the educational and scientific theory of adult learning and its application to the myriad ways that adults learn both professionally and personally. The L&L recognizes that lifelong learning for adults is fundamental to social, political, racial, economic, and gender justice and provides the building blocks for transformative change across many different settings – legal institutions and systems, government and non-profit, educational systems, business and workforce development, and the healthcare system. 

Reporting to the Director, the Program Assistant will provide administrative support for the Institute for Leadership in Educational Development (I-LED), Enhancing Judicial Skills in Abuse in Later Life Cases (EJS-ALL) and Supporting Organizational Sustainability (SOS) Programs and other initiatives as they arise.
