  • have experience in teaching in in-person, online, hybrid and/or intensive course delivery models.
  • have scholarship or the potential for scholarship in counseling and/or counselor education and supervision that unites faith, research, and professional practice.

The preferred, though negotiable, starting date is January 1, 2026. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.
