Job Description Additional Information

The Early Learning and Care Program is currently accepting resumes for term instructor(s) to join a team of educators committed to excellence, collaboration, diversity, and learner‑centered education. Workload opportunities may include courses from both first year and second year.
The successful candidate(s) should have extensive experience and knowledge of current pedagogy of the early years field, and uphold values of decolonizing education, inclusion, collaboration,



equity, diversity, and cultivating culturally safe spaces within the college and community. The Early Learning and Care Diploma ( ELC ) program also supports many multi‑lingual and English language learners and international students and invite applicants with multiple languages to highlight this in their cover letter.

The program is a dynamic, applied diploma program that provides learners with the knowledge, skills and values to create responsive and nurturing early learning experiences for all children and families, including children with diverse abilities from infancy to school aged. The curriculum philosophy uses strength‑based, child and family‑focused principles with an emphasis on democratic and cooperative practices.

Indigenous perspectives on supporting children and families, and connections to nature, land and place, as well as the impact of colonization and the residential school experience, are woven throughout the learning experience. Incorporating a sociocultural perspective informed by contemporary discourse and research, students learn how to support and strengthen children’s unique and complex identities within their contexts of family, community and culture. The program provides graduates with a strong foundation for a variety of professional opportunities in the field of early learning and care, including leadership and advocacy.

Qualifications

- Minimum of five years’ work experience in early years settings

- Experience working respectfully with Indigenous communities

- An equivalent combination of education and experience will also be considered.

Capabilities

The core capabilities are required for all positions at the college.

Focus on Students and Their Success (Core)

- We all have a role to play in promoting and supporting students – directly or indirectly – contributing to their success,



education and transition as they build their path to the future.

Cultural Alignment (Core)

- Inclusion and respect align with Camosun’s traditions of lifelong learning and positive, supportive experiences for all. We examine our individual and institutional cultures and, through indigenization, consider other ways of knowing (thinking), being (approaches), doing (acting), and relating.

Fostering and Nurturing Relationships (Core)

- Fostering and nurturing relationships is at the core of everything we do. Successful workplace relationships take time to develop and include building trust, engagement and collaboration.

We recognize that moving towards more equitable communities is an ongoing and evolving journey - one which the College is committed to undertaking. Since Camosun plays an important role in creating change within communities, it is our hope that our employees reflect the diversity of our students and experience an inclusive and supportive work workplace.
