About the Job
Engage U Coordinator
Job Summary
Representing a high-impact approach to improving student outcomes, Engage U aims to facilitate innovative and holistic pathways to higher education for all students. The Engage U Coordinator based at the Glendale-Mountain View Community Learning Center (CLC) will coordinate targeted programming, perform engagement-centered community outreach, and serve as a resource for education pathways for Westside community members. The coordinator will receive guidance and support from the Engage U program manager and collaborate with the program manager to develop, implement, and assess Engage U programming at the CLC.
This programming centers around improving access to educational opportunities and often requires partnership with both community partners and internal campus partners to provide content area expertise. Located in the Glendale neighborhood of Salt Lake City, the CLC represents a number of community-centered partnerships that support core instructional programs of elementary and middle schools through holistic family engagement and removal of barriers to learning. To that end, the CLC-based Engage U coordinator can expect to work closely and collaboratively with individuals from schools, CLC staff, University partners, parents and families, and community partners to support student aspirations and inquiries.
