MCEA Launching New Training Center

In conjunction with the National Education Association (NEA) the MCEA Center for Teacher Leadership is launching a new "training hub" to help build the organizational capacity of local teacher unions to be advocates for improving the quality of teaching and learning.

MCEA's experience in creating and using successful programs such as peer assistance and review, interest-based bargaining, authentic advocacy for school improvement, collaborative problem-solving, strategic leadership development, relational  organization and organizational restructuring will provide the basis for professional development programs for NEA teacher union leaders from across the country.

The Center has just posted a job announcement for a Teachers Union Training Project Coordinator to manage the project. Click on that link for more information. The one-year position will begin this summer, and is subject to renewal based on the success of the project.

The deadline for application is Friday May 23, 2014. Cover letters and resumes can be emailed to Tom Israel, MCEA Executive Director, at tisrael@mceanea.org, or by USMail at MCEA, 12 Taft Court, Rockville MD 20850.
