School-Aged Vision Screening Certification Trainer

Employee Class: Non-Exempt

Employee Sub-Class: Casual Part-Time

Position Reports to: Certification Program Director

Position Consults with: Certification Office Staff

Job Overview:

  • Generally, the trainings occur in-person across the state within schools and/or school system locations. But, each trainer will have a defined region of the state in which to train – generally within a 2-hour drive of the trainer’s home with an occasional overnight training.
  • Trainers average 4-10 hours per week generally across 2-3 mornings. That number may change throughout the year, based on scheduling demands, but will not exceed more than 20 hours per week on average.
  • Pay is hourly from the time the trainer leaves home until the time the trainer returns home - plus any time spent uploading results or reports. (Occasional overnight stays are calculated differently)
  • In addition to the hourly pay, PBNC reimburses trainers for mileage driven to and from appointments.

This rate may change from year to year.

Responsibilities and duties:

  • The trainer will learn and deliver PBNC’s approximately 3-hour vision screening certification workshop to PBNC target audiences including school nurses, school personnel, Health

Occupation Students, nursing students, and parent or community volunteers.

  • The trainer will be expected to assess, grade, and report to PBNC on the status of each trainee in a timely manner.
  • The trainer may be expected to host regular “office hours” as assigned by PBNC to review virtual skills assessments online.
  • The trainer will communicate quickly to their supervisor of any problems or concerns within a training or software.
  • The trainer will enter accurate time logs into the Prevent Blindness payroll system on a weekly basis.
  • The trainer will be subject to regular reviews and performance feedback from their supervisor.
  • The trainer will receive the Employee Handbook, acknowledge receipt, and adhere to all the policies and procedures written within.
  • The trainer must adhere to PBNC’s Covid-19 Related Training Protocol and Safety Measures. Because of the location of many training sites inside schools, a valid COVID-19 vaccine is a requirement of employment for this role, unless it is contraindicated for medical or bona fide religious reasons.
  • The trainer will complete other duties as assigned.

Qualifications:

  • Previous training experience desired.
  • Background in nursing, public health, health education, teaching, or training desired.
  • The candidate should possess at least basic computer and internet knowledge as well as basic proficiency with Microsoft Excel, Power Point, Email, and web conferencing platforms like Zoom, GoToMeeting, or Teams.
  • Comfortable speaking in front of groups of up to 30 participants.
  • Ability to communicate specific information to a variety of audiences in a professional manner.
  • Enthusiasm for working with people and teaching.
  • Flexible schedule with 3 days per week availability from August 15 – November 15.
  • Strong organization skills with ability to keep track of a lot of training supplies as well as a varied schedule.
  • Willingness to travel up to approximately 2 hours from home base with some early mornings and occasional overnights.
  • The candidate should possess a valid driver’s license and a reliable vehicle to travel to different training locations when scheduled for in-person events.
  • The candidate should have access to a reliable computer with private internet access (no public wi-fi).
  • The candidate should be able to lift 15 pounds or more while performing the duties of this role.
  • The candidate should be able to pass a criminal background check.
