Please login to verify your internal candidate status. This position has an end date of June 30, 2027, with the possibility of extension based on funding. Location - This role is in-person at Augustana Camrose. Some hybrid work is possible. The Department of Occupational Therapy at the University of Alberta is seeking an experienced occupational therapist (clinician/clinicianscientist) for a parttime Assistant Teaching Professor Stream (ATS) position at our MScOT Augustana satellite program in Camrose, Alberta. This position will primarily incorporate clinicrelated responsibilities, including direct clinical services and MScOT student supervision, and may also offer opportunity for classroomrelated teaching responsibilities as outlined below. This position is parttime and located in person at the Augustana Campus in Camrose. In September 2024, a cohort of 16 MScOT students (along with 16 MScPT and 16 MScSLP 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 spring of 2026. This position will be primarily situated in that clinic. We currently have three OT team members situated at our Augustana Campus: one fulltime Satellite Academic Coordinator/Associate Teaching Professor, one fulltime Assistant Teaching Professor, and one 0.4 FTE Assistant Teaching Professor. We also have two additional shared staff, including a fulltime Program Assistant and Satellite Coordinator, as well as regular interaction with our Augustanabased colleagues in the MScPT and MScSLP 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 inperson 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/inperson clinical roles, local community roles, as well as virtual therapy targeted at rural/rural remote locations in Alberta. #J-18808-Ljbffr
