Location - This role is in-person at Augustana Camrose.

We are seeking an experienced speech-language pathologist for an Assistant Teaching Professor Stream (ATS) position at our MScSLP Augustana satellite program in Camrose, Alberta. This position will primarily incorporate clinic-related responsibilities, including direct clinical services and MScSLP student supervision, and may also offer opportunity for classroom-related teaching responsibilities as outlined below. This position is located in person at the Augustana Campus in Camrose.

There is some flexibility in the FTE: We are looking to fill a total FTE of 0.8 - 1.0, to be filled either in a single position, or 2 smaller FTE positions.

In September 2024, a cohort of 16 MScSLP students (along with 16 MScPT and 16 MScOT students) embarked on their education at the University of Alberta Augustana Campus in Camrose. As such, across the three programs (OT, PT, SLP), there are currently 96 students who are in their first or second years of their respective programs in Camrose.

Part of our expansion to the Augustana satellite is to create an interdisciplinary (OT, PT, SLP) teaching clinic, with an anticipated opening date in the summer of 2026. This position will be primarily situated in that clinic. We currently have three CSD team members situated at our Augustana Campus:



one full-time Satellite Coordinator & Assistant Teaching Professor, one full-time Assistant Teaching Professor, and one 0.3 FTE Assistant Teaching Professor.

We also have two additional shared staff, including a full-time Program Assistant and Satellite Coordinator, as well as regular interaction with our Augustana-based colleagues in the MScPT and MScOT programs.

Students at our Augustana campus engage in their education through a distributed learning model. Most courses are coordinated with lead instruction from the main campus in Edmonton and delivered via a synchronous distributed learning model (Zoom platform) and/or in person instructor based on the needs and learning activities within each course. Onsite instructors at the satellite are crucial to engage with students in-person to facilitate discussion and applied activities of classes delivered primarily from another site, and for some direct teaching of experiential labs and Integration and Application grouping courses at the satellite site.

The interdisciplinary teaching clinic is anticipated to involve a blend of onsite/in-person clinical roles, local community roles, as well as virtual therapy targeted at rural/rural remote locations in Alberta.

At this time, our teaching needs relate to the following areas (subject to change):

1. Classroom teaching/lab facilitation related to adult / neurogenic communication disorders
2. Community engagement and development of clinical opportunities
3.



Clinical placement supervision through the interdisciplinary teaching clinic (in-person/virtual)
4. Clinical practice through the interdisciplinary teaching clinic. A variety of clinical practice areas is anticipated. Neurogenic communication disorders has been identified as one key area of practice, as has school-age services and augmentative and alternative communication.

Minimum qualifications
- A Master’s, PhD/Clinical Doctorate or equivalent and a minimum of four years of clinical experience.
- Registration with the Alberta College of Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists.
- Availability to work in person at the Augustana Campus for a majority of the time is expected as part of this role

Preferred Qualifications
- Clinical experience in the area of adult neurogenic communication disorders.
- Experience in clinical education (student supervision/mentorship);
- Strong organization and time management skills;
- Strong interpersonal communication skills, including conflict management skill;
- Strong networking and community-building skills;
- Strong skills in the area of program development; identifying role-emergent opportunities or current clinical opportunities that are supportive of the local context

Additional assets include:
- Ability to provide clinical services across the lifespan;
- Experience teaching in an academic setting;
- Leadership experience in clinical practice settings
