Dean, Institute of Star Trek Studies, SFA
| Description of Role | |
| Primary duties involve two areas: assisting students and administrative services. Deans must be able to handle issues that may arise between students and college Directors (problems getting exams graded, challenges to grades, etc.). Deans must beta test and approve all new exams, manuals, and colleges added to their institutes, and coordinate with the Course Development Committee to get final approval. Once approved, the Dean is responsible for submitting the final versions of the exams to appropriate personnel for integration into our live curriculum offerings Deans must also work with their Directors to resolve any reported issues the Director may be having, or inform the proper office of the issue. Additionally, Deans receive the monthly status reports from the college Directors within their institutes and use those to generate their monthly institute status reports. Assistant Deans assist the Dean with their duties, and need to be willing to serve as Dean on a temporary basis if needed; therefore Assistants should be able to perform all of the above duties if required. | |
| Skills Needed | |
| All staff members need to be able to use Microsoft Office or Open Office (or similar, compatible program); previous experience with Moodle not required but must be willing to learn basic functions. Additionally, good grammar, spelling, and proofreading skills are STRONGLY encouraged.
Experience required: Deans and Assistant Deans must have a minimum of one year experience with SFA or MTC (formerly SFMCA) as an Assistant Director or above (past staff members are welcome to apply). Similar experience elsewhere in STARFLEET or in the real world may be considered in lieu of SFA/MTC experience. |
