As a LPN Educator supporting the GYO program, you will play an important role in supporting learner success while helping sites across the province build and sustain their future workforce. This is an exciting opportunity to take your nursing expertise beyond frontline practice and apply your education, project coordination, relationship-building and strategic skills to a program with organization-wide impact. You will work with learners, site-based tutors, operational leaders, educators and post-secondary partners to support consistent program delivery, strengthen local educational capacity and prepare learners to provide safe, high-quality, resident-centered care. You will monitor learner progress, identify and address barriers to success, support and develop site-based tutors and collaborate with leaders to understand workforce needs and opportunities. You will also contribute to program improvement and workforce planning by identifying learner pipeline opportunities, emerging staffing needs and factors that influence workforce sustainability. Working closely with Professional Practice, Talent Acquisition and operational partners across Covenant Health, you will help ensure learners are confident, competent and practice-ready while supporting sites to develop their own talent pipelines.
