  • candidates who are not selected are able to start looking for a position outside of YK1 as soon as possible

 

Anyone interested in applying should indicate their interest in writing and send in an updated resume, where appropriate. In general, the update will consist of professional development activities undertaken and any participation in committees or major teaching activities.  Electronic applications only please to Landon.Kowalzik@yk1.nt.ca
