Pursuant to Article 16 of the CUPE 4600 Unit 2 Collective Agreement, applications are invited from members of the CUPE 4600-2 bargaining unit and other interested persons to teach the following Enriched Support Program<\/a> courses in the Fall and Winter 2026-27 academic terms. .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Posting Date: May 1st<\/sup>, 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Application Deadline: June 1st<\/sup>, 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

All courses are subject to final budgetary approval. Courses will be offered first to applicants with incumbency rights under the CUPE 4600-2 Collective Agreement. The hiring proceeds next to qualified applicants with seniority and finally to qualified applicants without seniority (external hires).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

*Qualifications<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Qualifications will be assessed with reference to the following criteria<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Academic qualifications:<\/strong> Applicants should hold a Master\u2019s degree or higher; have university teaching experience with first-year students; and have ongoing experience with teaching in the relevant subject area (see below).
Teaching Competence and Approach: <\/strong>Candidates are applying to teach a seminar (FYSM) or core class (CIED) in the Enriched Support Program<\/a> (ESP), a first-year transition program that supports students in developing the skills needed for university success and is grounded in academic course content. Applicants must demonstrate evidence of teaching excellence with first-year undergraduate students in a seminar or similar context. In addition to subject-matter expertise, candidates must show experience integrating academic skill development into course content in meaningful and intentional ways. Evidence of collaborative teaching approaches is required, as ESP First-Year Seminars (FYSMs) and CIED courses are designed to align with and complement other program elements, such as peer mentoring, academic advising, and academic coaching. Teaching approaches should prioritize integrating diverse scholarship into course content and providing opportunities for interaction, collaboration, and active student engagement. Courses must include scaffolded writing assignments across all stages of the writing process, with opportunities for feedback and revision. For FYSM classes: a culminating assignment in the Winter term should build on work completed throughout the course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
