The C. Wayne McIlwraith Translational Medicine Institute (TMI) is operated under the Department of Clinical Science (College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences) at Colorado State University (CSU). The Institute provides a safe, secure, state of the art facility for faculty, scientists and staff for collaborative efforts in the area of research, entrepreneurial business development and continuing medical education aligned to the institute’s mission and vision. The TMI is a new initiative housed in a 130,000 sq. ft. building that opened in December 2018.
The CSUVetCE team @ TMI seeks to provide an unparalleled Continuing Education (CE) experience every day…something that we refer to as “CE Elevated”. We believe that people, animals and the planet can be improved when inspired learners, engaged educators and relevant learning experiences collide; that is the purpose, the passion and the why behind our quest to provide CE Elevated experiences. We host up to 75+ CE courses on more than 150 calendar days each year including a wide variety of small animal, equine and human continuing medical education courses to graduate veterinarians, certified technicians and medical professionals throughout the year. We utilize a combination of models, simulators, cadavers and humane non-terminal use of live animals in our courses; cadaveric training comprises ~ 2/3 of our lab instruction .We are a rapidly growing and maturing group and now is a great time to jump aboard the CSUVetCE team for the right person. In our busy times, our team can have a series of 7-day work weeks. Responsibilities for support of CE lab courses will be divided between this managerial position, the CE Lab Course Coordinators, the CE Lab Assistants and Support positions and student/non-student hourly employees and volunteers.
We’re seeking a motivated, intelligent, responsible, organized, adaptable, customer-centric, and skilled veterinary technician to organize and manage the CE Teaching Laboratories located in the Translational Medicine Institute. General responsibilities include equipment knowledge, maintenance and management, scheduling hands-on procedural and surgical laboratories within the various groups utilizing the Teaching Laboratories (including small animal and equine) and management of CE Teaching Lab personnel. This position is permitted to participate in technician-level CE as a paid instructor when needed. This position will report to the Senior Manager of CE, but will work closely with all TMI Unit personnel, the faculty delivering the labs and supporting vendors / sponsors. Important skill sets will include organization, attention to detail, personnel management, animal use oversight and written and oral communication.
CSU is an EO/EA/AA employer and conducts background checks on all final candidates.
