Job Profile: Educator Outreach Representative

Job Duties: The Educator Outreach Representative position is located within the Communications and Marketing department and will report to the Assistant Director of Customer Service. Educator Outreach Representatives are responsible for supporting educators of multilingual learners through a variety of products and services related to our WIDA Standards and Assessments. This position is also responsible for the development and delivery of technical assistance to educators from WIDA Consortium member states in the form of answering questions about test administration, training course accounts, and the WIDA standards for use in instruction.

In addition, this position will support cross-departmental projects and initiatives across WIDA (e.g., annual participation in WIDA assessment UAT reviews, moderating webinars).

What is WIDA? For over 20 years, WIDA has provided a trusted, comprehensive approach to supporting, teaching, and assessing multilingual learners. We are an educational services organization that advances language development and academic achievement for multilingual children in early childhood and grades K-12. In short, we provide educators around the world with high-quality language standards, assessments, professional learning, and research. We are proud to be a part of the Wisconsin Center for Education Research (WCER) within UW-Madison's nationally ranked School of Education.
