Job Description:
POSITION SUMMARY:
The Department of Education seeks a collaborative, analytical, and systems-minded Assessment Coordinator to lead assessment, accreditation, data quality, and continuous-improvement activities across undergraduate and graduate educator-preparation programs. The Coordinator will build and maintain an integrated quality assurance system that produces accurate, timely, disaggregated, and actionable evidence for program improvement; CAEP accreditation; Tennessee Department of Education approval, annual reporting, and comprehensive review; Title II reporting; and institutional decision-making.
Working with education department faculty, program directors, clinical partners, completers, and employers will strengthen assessment quality, manage evidence, facilitate data-informed decisions, and document improvement. The position will also support graduate-program growth through recruitment analytics, pipeline monitoring, outreach, and clear communication of program value and outcomes.
PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES
Assessment Systems and Continuous Improvement
Design, implement, document, and continuously improve a unit-wide quality assurance and assessment system aligned with program outcomes, CAEP expectations, Tennessee requirements, professional standards, and institutional priorities.
Maintain an assessment architecture that maps courses, clinical experiences, key assessments, benchmarks, standards, data sources, responsible parties, reporting cycles, and evidence of improvement.
Coordinate the administration, collection, scoring, storage, and review of program- and provider-level assessments for initial and advanced programs.
Establish assessment calendars, submission protocols, data dictionaries, standard operating procedures, and dashboards; lead recurring data-review cycles and document decisions, actions, and results.
Accreditation State Approval and Reporting
Coordinate evidence and reporting for CAEP, Tennessee Department of Education approval and comprehensive review, Title II, annual reports, specialty-professional requirements, and related institutional expectations.
Maintain crosswalks connecting CAEP standards, Tennessee policies and standards, program standards, institutional outcomes, and required evidence.
Manage a secure, audit-ready evidence repository with version control, source verification, retention procedures, and a clear trail from data to claims and improvement decisions.
Draft, edit, and quality-check self-study narratives, reports, exhibits, tables, and reviewer responses; manage timelines, readiness reviews, mock audits, action logs, and follow-up.
Facilitate accreditation meetings, workshops, and technical-assistance sessions for faculty, staff, advisory groups, school partners, completers, and other stakeholders.
Data Management, Analytics and Governance
Integrate and reconcile data from student-information, learning-management, clinical-practice, survey, licensure, completer, employer, recruitment, and state sources.
Develop repeatable validation and quality-control routines addressing completeness, accuracy, duplication, definitions, permissions, and reporting consistency.
Analyze and disaggregate candidate, completer, clinical, enrollment, persistence, licensure, employment, and performance data to identify strengths, gaps, equity patterns, and emerging priorities.
Requirements:
Master's degree from an accredited institution in education, educational leadership, assessment and evaluation, research methods, data analytics, or a closely related field.
Experience in assessment, program evaluation, accreditation, institutional research, compliance reporting, or educational data systems, preferably in educator preparation or higher education.
Demonstrated ability to improve data-collection and reporting processes, analyze quantitative and qualitative evidence, create clear visualizations, and translate findings into action.
Proficiency with spreadsheets and experience with data visualization, survey, database, assessment-management, student-information, learning-management, or reporting tools.
Excellent writing, editing, facilitation, project-management, and interpersonal skills; ability to manage confidential information and competing deadlines with sound judgment.
