Child and Youth Program Assistant

We need to produce HTML fragment with sections only if content present. Must not repeat job title. Must not include Job ID etc. Must remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting: It's a CYP Assistant job description. We need sections: About the role (maybe summary), Responsibilities (duties), Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to decide which sections have real content. From posting: - Summary: "CYP Assistants work directly with children and youth, keeping them actively engaged, well-cared for, and safe while participating in the CYP. The CYP Assistant's day includes helping children develop social skills such as making friends and conflict resolution; make healthy choices whether it be choosing nutritional snacks or appropriate recreational activities; build self-help and school readiness skills; and explore the environment around them." That's about the role. So we can have

About the role

with

that summary. - Duties: The posting has a big "Duties" section with categories: Curriculum, Indoor and Outdoor Environment, Interactions and Relationships, Supervision of Children and Youth, Parent and Employee Communication, Assessment, Compliance, Additional Responsibilities. Each with bullet-like paragraphs. We need to output as

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. So we need to convert each duty item into list items. Could group under a single
  with many
  • items, or separate headings? The instruction: Use

    for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Use

    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. So we likely have a Responsibilities section with

      • items covering duties. Thus we need to extract each duty bullet from the "Duties" section. The text includes headings like "Curriculum", "Indoor and Outdoor Environment", etc. Those could be turned into list items or maybe subheadings? But we are only allowed to use

        for section headings; we could still include those as inside

        or as part of text. Simpler: create a

        with each duty as a
        • containing the paragraph text. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include each duty description exactly as given (maybe trimmed). Must not lose any detail. Let's extract each duty paragraph: Under "Curriculum": - Develops schedules and activity plans. This may include reviewing and providing input into schedules and activity plans developed by the entry level and intermediate level Educational Aids (CY Program Assistants), CY-1702-I. - Ensures that program plans and activities incorporate the observed needs of individual children and youth. - Implements activities and special events that meet the physical, social, emotional, and cognitive needs of children and youth. - Incorporates special instructions provided by parents such as special dietary needs, physical needs, or other information that may affect the child or youth's experience in the program. - Prepares and implements program options for children and youth with special requirements. - Cares for children and youth with special needs as directed by the supervisor. - Demonstrates, instructs, leads, and facilitates planned and spontaneous program activities. - Role models developmentally appropriate practice and classroom or activity area management techniques. - Promotes and models safety, fitness, health, and nutrition practices. - Helps arrange for and/or serve appropriate snacks or meals where applicable.

Under "Additional Responsibilities": - Collects, maintains, and reports program participation data. - Performs other related duties as assigned. Now Requirements: The posting has a "Requirements Help" section with "Conditions of employment" bullet list. We need to extract each requirement: - Must be 18 years of age or older. - Complete required training certificates, and maintain certifications or credentials required by Federal, State, and/or national accreditation institutions used as part of DoD's Child and Youth Programs. - Pass all applicable records and background checks. - Undergo pre-employment and random drug testing. - A positive drug test, or failure to submit for testing, is a basis for removal from this position. - Pass a pre-employment physical, provide evidence of immunization, be free of all communicable diseases, and obtain appropriate immunization against communicable diseases. - Employment contingent upon proof of education if not provided at time of application. - Marijuana is a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act and therefore use of marijuana is illegal under Federal law regardless of State laws. - A positive drug test result for marijuana (or any other drug tested for) will result in withdrawal of the tentative job offer and ineligibility to apply for a position within the Department of Defense for 6 months from the date of the drug test. - This position has been identified as a Test Designated Position (TDP). The incumbent of this position will be subject to and must consent to a pre-employment and random drug testing. - Must be a U.S. citizen or hold 3 years of lawful U.S. residency Also later there is "Additional information Conditions of Employment Cont." with more details: background checks, fingerprint checks, Tier 1 with Child Care check, State Criminal History Repository (SCHR) check, Installation Records Check (IRC) includes checks of SARP, FAP, NJIS, etc. Also automatic disqualifiers: sexual offense, criminal offense involving child victim, felony drug offense, negligence in civil adjudication concerning death or serious injury to child, etc. Also some positions have special requirements: Selectee may be required to complete a one (1) year probationary period. Participation in Direct Deposit/Electronic Fund Transfer within the first 30 days of employment is required. We utilize E-Verify to confirm selectee's eligibility to work in the United States. Candidates should be committed to improving the efficiency of the Federal government, passionate about the ideals of our American republic, and com (cut off). This seems like boilerplate but some of it is substantive: background check details, probation period, direct deposit, E-Verify, commitment to improving efficiency etc. Should we include? The instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. The "Additional information Conditions of Employment Cont." seems like legal/conditions but still substantive for employment. It's not clearly boilerplate like EEO; it's more about conditions. Might be considered part of Requirements. However the instruction says remove legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate. This is more like conditions of employment, which could be considered requirements. I'd include the substantive parts: background check details, probation period, direct deposit, E-Verify, commitment to improving efficiency etc. But the text ends abruptly: "and com". Likely truncated; we should not include incomplete sentence. Better to stop before that incomplete part. We need to decide what to include. The posting ends with: "Candidates should be committed to improving the efficiency of the Federal government, passionate about the ideals of our American republic, and com". That's incomplete; we should not include that as it's incomplete. So we can include up to "Candidates should be committed to improving the efficiency of the Federal government, passionate about the ideals of our American republic," but that's still incomplete? Actually it's missing something after "and". Safer to omit that line. Thus for Requirements we will include the list items from Conditions of employment and the Additional information Conditions of Employment Cont. up to before the incomplete sentence. Let's extract those: From "Additional information Conditions of Employment Cont.": - Incumbents must satisfactorily complete all background checks for child care positions, including fingerprint checks, a Tier 1 with Child Care check, and a State Criminal History Repository (SCHR) check. - All individuals involved in the provision of child care services on a Department of Navy (DON) installation or in a DON-sanctioned program must complete the Installation Records Check (IRC). - The IRC includes a check of the Substance Abuse Rehabilitation Program (SARP) records in the Alcohol and Drug Management Information Tracking System (ADMITS) database, a check of the Family Advocacy Program (FAP) records in the Fleet and Family Support Management Information System (FFSMIS), and an installation security/base check via the Navy Justice Information System (NJIS) database and/or other law enforcement systems. - This information will be used to determine suitability for the applicant in accordance with criteria for automatic and presumptive disqualifiers, per DoDI 1402.05. - Per Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 1402.05 Background Checks on Individuals in DoD Child Care Services Programs, incumbents will be automatically disqualified for a conviction in either civilian or military court (to include any general, special, or summary court-martial conviction or if they received non-judicial punishment [under Article 15 or chapter 47 of Title 10, U.S.C]) for any of the following: a sexual offense, any criminal offense involving a child victim, or a felony drug offense. - Additionally, the incumbent will be automatically disqualified if he/she has been held to be negligent in a civil adjudication or administrative proceeding concerning the death of or serious injury to a child or dependent person entrusted to the individual's care. - Some positions have special requirements. Selectee may be required to complete a one (1) year probationary period. - Participation in Direct Deposit/Electronic Fund Transfer within the first 30 days of employment is required. - We utilize E-Verify to confirm selectee's eligibility to work in the United States. We should not include the incomplete sentence about candidates. Now Qualifications: The posting has a "Qualifications" section with details for Entry Level, Intermediate Level, Target Level, and Education. We need to capture all that as list items under Qualifications. Let's extract: Under Qualifications: - Resumes must include information which demonstrates experience and knowledge, skills,
