Full Job Description

Position Overview

The Practicum Education Coordinator provides administrative, operational, technology, and community partnership support for the Social Welfare Practicum Office. The position works closely with Associate Directors of Practicum Education to support social work practicum planning, agency development, onboarding, placement operations, data management, and practicum programming. The position serves as a primary operational contact for MSW and BSW students, practicum instructors, and community partners.
The position reports to the Director of Practicum Education and is based on the Lawrence campus or remotely, at the discretion of the Director of Practicum Education and the Dean.

Extensive communication and collaboration with students, community partner personnel, practicum instructors, practicum liaisons, and other School staff are essential functions of this position.

Assignment Flexibility
The percentages assigned to each responsibility area are estimates intended to describe the general scope of the position. Actual assignments may vary based on enrollment trends, staffing levels, student needs, program priorities, accreditation requirements, and operational demands of the Practicum Office. Duties may be reassigned or redistributed by the Director of Practicum Education as needed to support the mission and functioning of the School of Social Welfare.
