Program (Laboratory Sections).

WCC is seeking qualified and experienced Medical Laboratory Technologists (MLTs) to support the delivery of specific laboratory sections within the Medical Laboratory Assistant (MLA) Program.

The initial need for this position is primarily for a limited number of courses or laboratory sections per cohort, and the position will therefore be offered on a casual, course‑by‑course basis. The successful candidate may be scheduled for selected courses or laboratory sessions based on program requirements and their availability.

The position is primarily required at the Abbotsford Campus. However, depending on the candidate’s availability and willingness to travel, there may also be opportunities to teach at nearby WCC campuses, such as Surrey and Agassiz based on course scheduling and program needs.

Candidates who have greater availability may have the opportunity to teach additional courses within the MLA Program beyond the initial assignment.
