DEAN OF THE COMMUNITY AND TECHNICAL COLLEGE SEARCH
Dr. Charlene Stern, Vice Chancellor for Rural Community and Native Education at the University of Alaska Fairbanks (UAF), enthusiastically invites nominations and applications for the University's next Dean of the Community and Technical College (CTC). The next Dean will be an inspirational and accomplished professional who will provide visionary leadership and overall academic, administrative, and financial management of the College.

The CTC works closely with more than 400 industry partners in over 50 certificate and degree programs designed to prepare students for work in numerous professional and technical fields.
Prospective candidates must consider that Fairbanks is unlike any other place in the United States. Fairbanks is in the Boreal ecoregion tucked between the state's Arctic, Subarctic, and Coastal ecoregions, with long winters offering little daylight and short, warm summers with a modicum of darkness. Yet Alaskans enjoy the freedom of unmatched natural beauty and the wonder of a million stars in the night sky.

• A demonstrated record of effective communication with internal and external audiences
