  • 1.  Technology Support Coordinator (or Similar) Stipend Position Job Description

    Posted 10-21-2023 12:33 PM

    Hey all!

    I am looking to create a stipend position to support EdTech in the grade-level divisions (1 LS, 1 MS/US). I lead a team of two (with a part-time contractor) and needs are always growing/changing. I would like to structure this like a department chair or level coordinator role. Does anyone have a job description for something similar that you'd be willing to share? 

    Thank you!
