What is Adventist Education?

Adventist Education refers to the worldwide educational system operated by the Seventh-day Adventist Church. It includes schools, colleges, and universities that integrate academic excellence with spiritual growth based on Christian values. The curriculum emphasizes holistic development—mental, physical, spiritual, and social. Adventist schools aim to prepare students for service to humanity and a life of faith. They are open to students of all backgrounds and focus on character building alongside academic achievement.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in Adventist Education?

To excel in Adventist Education, educators typically need a degree in education or a subject-specific field, a teaching license, and a solid understanding of Seventh-day Adventist beliefs and values. Familiarity with curriculum planning tools, learning management systems, and faith-integrated teaching resources is often required. Strong interpersonal communication, cultural sensitivity, and a commitment to spiritual mentorship distinguish outstanding Adventist educators. These competencies ensure both high-quality academic instruction and the holistic spiritual development of students within the faith-based educational environment.

What collaborative opportunities can teachers expect within the Adventist Education system?

Teachers in the Adventist Education system often work closely with colleagues, administrators, and church leaders to create a supportive learning environment that integrates faith and academics. Regular team meetings, professional development sessions, and joint planning activities are common, promoting a strong sense of community and shared mission. Educators may also collaborate on extracurricular programs, spiritual events, and community outreach initiatives, allowing for both professional growth and meaningful connections with others who share their values.

Job Description
The School of Education at La Sierra University invites applications for a 20% part-time faculty position to oversee the University's Seventh-day Adventist Educational Administration Program, including the Principal Endorsement and Certificate Program. The position is expected to begin on a mutually agreed-upon date.
This is a non-tenure-track, part-time (20%) faculty appointment. The initial appointment will be for two years, subject to annual performance reviews and program needs. The contract may be renewed or extended by mutual agreement and continued institutional need. This position is primarily administrative and instructional, focusing on leadership and oversight of the Adventist Educational Administration Program and related certificate offerings.
This position is primarily online. The successful candidate will provide leadership for the Adventist Educational Administration Program, oversee program operations, advise students, coordinate course offerings and instructors, support recruitment efforts, and maintain strong relationships with Adventist schools, conferences, unions, and educational organizations.

  • Assist with curriculum review, program assessment, accreditation requirements, and continuous improvement efforts.
  • Support marketing, recruitment, and retention efforts for Adventist educational leadership programs.
  • Maintain regular communication with the Dean and Department Chair regarding program matters. Because this is a primarily online position, regular in-person attendance at faculty and school meetings is not expected.

  • Demonstrated understanding of Seventh-day Adventist philosophy of education and of school administration.
  • Experience teaching, mentoring, or providing professional development for educators.
  • Strong organizational, communication, and leadership skills.
  • Experience in online teaching, educational technology, and program administration is preferred.

Preferred Qualifications
Preference will be given to candidates who:
  • Have served successfully in leadership positions within Seventh-day Adventist education.
  • Have experience working with principal certification, leadership development, or administrative preparation programs.
  • Have established professional networks within the Pacific Union Conference or other Adventist educational systems.
  • Demonstrate a commitment to mentoring and developing future educational leaders.
