CHECK OUT THE SPECIFICS TO SEE IF THIS IS THE RIGHT FIT FOR YOU
At VAP, our commitment to evolution is reflected in our culture of learning and professional development. The Director of Training & Development is responsible for cultivating a professional and educational environment for staff, volunteers, interns, and community members engaged in supporting victims of crime and trauma by crafting, executing, participating, evaluating, and overseeing the agency's annual education plan, with the primary objective of ensuring victims receive best-practice, culturally competent, and trauma-informed support.
Enhancing Victim Services
Without first-hand knowledge and passion for serving victims, how else would you develop dynamic and engaging course curriculum that is aligned with emerging trends and organizational needs? Therefore, we require this position to engage in direct service activities, one day per quarter, to achieve the following responsibilities:
Teaching
SVAA is a leading expert in providing research-informed, culturally competent, and effective training for those who provide services to victims or all crimes & trauma. To maintain our expert status, the Director of Training & Development will need to have a keen eye for detail, be or become a subject matter expert in victim advocacy, and produce professional, culturally competent, polished products to provide internally for free and externally for a fee.
Administration
The Director of Training & Development will need to possess excellent technological and organizational skills to ensure that the agency’s education plan is aligned with policies, strategic plans, accreditation requirements, and continuing education requirements.
REQUIREMENTS
We are looking for an intrinsically motivated learner who knows their way around trauma-informed care for victims and can inspire others. While we will fill you in on our internal processes and requirements, we need someone who already has the basics down: Researching, creating engaging content, presenting, and the technical skills to administer various software programs as well as:
THINGS TO THINK ABOUT BEFORE APPLYING
All employees of Victim Assistance Program must appreciate the potential physical and psychological impact VAP employment may have on their personal lives. Employees may witness, observe, smell, and hear disturbing sights and sounds including but not limited to crime scenes, pictures of abuse, and recordings of violent incidents. Secondly, employees may be exposed to situations which could potentially result in physical harm from victims and/or aggressors. Both are concerns primarily of direct service victim advocates, but any employee can be exposed to these situations from time to time. In addition, all employees of Victim Assistance Program are required to respond 24/7/365 to the needs of victims of extreme and catastrophic incidents impacting Summit County. This rare response from the administrative staff would be for administrative support and logistics.
TAKING CARE OF OUR OWN
We aspire to ensure the needs of our employees are always identified. We provide employees with a supportive and accessible supervisor, a beautiful trauma informed office setting, new furniture, up to date technology, security, expansive training programs and an employee assistance program including 6 free confidential counseling sessions.
Our newly renovated main office in downtown Akron is within walking distance to the courts, police station, restaurants, shops, and the towpath trails. The space includes an education training facility, trauma free room, and a staff kitchen. A generous benefit package is also provided to full-time employees. This includes 3 weeks of annual PTO plus 13 paid holidays, a birthday PTO day, 2 PTO volunteer days, medical coverage, dental & vision coverage, pet insurance, mileage reimbursement, significant bereavement leave, and a 401k retirement plan with a matching contribution.
It is our belief that if employees are taken care of, and employees have the resources to take care of themselves, then victims will receive superior services… and that is our goal.
