Applications will reopen in May of 2024 for the 2024-25 academic year.
Job Summary
PASS Facilitators are undergraduate student staff members hired by the Centre for Student Academic Support (CSAS). As a PASS Facilitator, you will be responsible for planning and conducting weekly workshops where students from your supported course attend to actively learn the core concepts. PASS Facilitators are not expected to be experts in their field and they are not to teach or re-lecture students. PASS Facilitators are student leaders that model active learning, collaboration, and successful study skills within their workshops. In your role as a PASS Facilitator, you will be asked to complete weekly workshops and administrative duties; mock exams, review sessions, and office hours at key points in the semester; and additional learning and training opportunities. PASS Facilitators are placed on teams, under the supervision of a Team Leader throughout the duration of their employment, allowing them access to frequent communications and support from fellow colleagues. As a PASS Facilitator, you will be acting in a leadership capacity each week, engaging with groups of students, and positively impacting student learning and academic success.
Please note, PASS Facilitators can only apply to support courses which they have already taken and received a final grade of A- or higher. Final grades will be cross-referenced with applications to ensure this requirement has been met.

“This program provided me with an opportunity to expand my leadership and mentorship skills while making an impact on the academic journeys of students, and I think I have learned just as much from the students as they have from me! The community itself is one like no other; I have never felt so supported and appreciated by my fellow facilitators and staff members as I did at PASS.”
