Ambassador: Communication Strategist and Content Creator
|
Harrisonburg
|
|
The Virginia Department of Education I'm Determined Center (IMD) at JMU is seeking a qualified and experienced Communication Strategist and Content Creator Ambassador. We are looking for a dynamic candidate who is interested in a work environment that affords ongoing professional learning opportunities, collaboration with colleagues, and an opportunity to influence educational practices. This is a grant-funded position.
The Communication Strategist and Content Creator Ambassador is a state-wide position dedicated to communicating and keeping up to date with all the resources and happenings that are occurring in I’m Determined. This role will oversee telling the story of I’m Determined with a variety of outlets. The Communication Strategist and Content Creator will promote examples of self-determination occurring in schools, in families, and in and across our communities. Further, this role will seek to organize and mobilize a website strategy that will allow users to engage with the website no matter where they are on their self-determination journey. Such an undertaking means having a deep understanding of youth engagement, as well as strategies that will encourage users to return for more ideas and resources.
On the social media side, there is a call to incorporate existing website resources and media into a social media and email strategy. This has been an emerging practice at IMD, however, there is a desire to design and create an integrated platform where the website and our social media presence are working in tandem with one another in ways that encourage, support, and inspire users to try new things, think creatively, and be self-determined. This ambassador will also structure and plan all communication through email and subscriber lists.
This is a tele-eligible position. |
Ambassador: Media Strategy and Development
|
Harrisonburg

The Virginia Department of Education I'm Determined Center (IMD) at JMU is seeking a qualified and experienced Ambassador of Media Strategy and Development. We are looking for a dynamic candidate who is interested in a work environment that affords ongoing professional learning opportunities, collaboration with colleagues, and an opportunity to influence educational practices. This is a grant-funded position.
Visual media has been a strength of the I’m Determined project since its inception. Visual media includes, but is not limited to, animated or live-action videos, documentary and narrative-style video projects, event coverage, and the development of online modules or courses that package I’m Determined media and resources so that youth, families, and educators can access and learn about self-determination when it suits them best.
The Media Strategy and Development Ambassador is a state-wide position that will develop and maintain strategy for media creation throughout each year, will provide leadership during media projects and “on-set” days, and will work with the leadership team to create media that captures the results of what happens when youth become more self-determined. This ambassador will also work closely with other ambassadors to help create media that helps them with their work. For example, the media ambassador could work with the research ambassador to help create something that allows the general public to better understand the research and findings, or could work with the youth leadership development ambassador to create a video that helps youth leaders tell their story. The Media Strategy and Development Ambassador should also be ready to explore other mediums besides visual media, for example, podcast and other audio-related media.
This is a tele-eligible position. |

This is a grant-funded position.
The Research Ambassador’s main role is to analyze many of the longstanding practices in I’m Determined and translate them into practitioner-friendly research. While research agendas will be set by I’m Determined leadership, the research ambassador will support a growing research agenda. This role will require leadership in research methodology and design, coordination of research projects, and intentional participation from youth leaders, educators, and families. This research will prioritize the positive outcomes associated with developing self-determination and youth leadership, particularly in education, and will also look to conduct research that incorporates and reflects the emerging thoughts and ideas of youth leaders and young people who are displaying self-determination in their daily lives.
This is a tele-eligible position. |
