Current Available Faculty & Academic Staff Positions

  

Position Title:

AmeriCorps Case Manager - 211a.0708

Department:

CCDET

Responsibilities:

The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh Center for Career Development and Employability Training (CCDET), contracted by Serve Wisconsin, provides technical assistance services and training to AmeriCorps members serving in area schools and non-profit agencies.

The Case Manager for the Minimum Time AmeriCorps Members is responsible for recruiting, supervising, and monitoring service hours for those AmeriCorps members serving 300 hour (MT) placements. The majority of these members will be University human service and social work students doing unpaid field placements. The MT Case Manager works in coordination with other AmeriCorps staff to implement and maintain an effective AmeriCorps program, including required record keeping. Because recruitment of these members occurs at the beginning of each semester, workload is heavier at the beginning of the semester, and again at the end of the semester or end of the member service. The MT case manager also coordinates with internship offices on the campus of UW Oshkosh and at other area campuses in AmeriCorps recruitment efforts.

  • Bachelor's degree
  • Supervisory experience
