Two Job Opportunities to Join Bringing Theory to Practice

Bringing Theory to Practice is excited to announce their search for two staff members to join their national work to advance the Paradigm Project. The project is a multi-year initiative that aims to advance systemic change to make undergraduate education more equitable, engaged, and holistic. Shifting the public narrative about higher education is a primary goal of this work, and the Narrative Change Strategist and the Communications Coordinator will play integral roles in the project. 

The Narrative Change Strategist will lead the development of the Paradigm Project's narrative change, communications, and public outreach strategies. They will generally oversee, and periodically contribute to, storytelling about the future of higher education, current educational innovations, and the goals of the project, and they will help to create tools and resources for the project's movement-building work. This role requires a capacity for collaboration and complex relationship-building, as well as strong interest in the challenges, purpose, and future of higher education. It is a full-time position that can be either fully on-campus at Elon University or hybrid with regular campus visits.
