Director of Continuing Education and Workforce Development - Allied Health Programs
for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections where posting has real specific content.
We need to parse the posting.
Key info:
- Position details: grant-funded, annual appointment contingent upon continued funding. Description of BMCC, mission, location, diversity, etc. This could be "About the role" or maybe "About the role" includes description of role and organization. The posting includes a lot about the role: strategic leadership, oversight, managing portfolio, etc. So we can put that under "About the role" or "Responsibilities". The instruction: Use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we need to decide which headings to use.
We have content for:
- About the role: description of BMCC, CEWD, mission, location, etc. Could be placed under "About the role".
- Responsibilities: list of duties: Provide leadership and oversight for long-term goals, oversee staff, oversee development of pipeline, ensure stackable credentials, manage multi-source budgets, grant strategy, outreach, recruitment, partnerships, performance culture, collaboration with academic departments, lead advisory board, oversee instruction quality, drive improvement, serve as liaison, etc. Also earlier bullet: "This position manages a complex and evolving ecosystem..." etc. So we can list responsibilities.
- Requirements: maybe "MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS: Bachelor’s Degree and eight years' related experience in workforce development and/or higher education". Also "Preferred Qualifications" list.
- Qualifications: Could combine minimum and preferred? The instruction says we can have Qualifications section. We'll put both minimum and preferred there.
- Skills: maybe we can extract from preferred qualifications: program management, supervisory experience, Allied Health programming, knowledge of field, ability to manage multiple initiatives, negotiation skills, data analytics, CRM, budget software, commitment to equity. Could be a Skills section.
- Benefits: The posting mentions "CUNY's benefits contribute significantly to total compensation, supporting health and wellness, financial well-being, and professional development. We offer a range of health plans, competitive retirement/pension benefits and savings plans, tuition waivers for CUNY graduate study and generous paid time off. Our staff also benefits from the extensive academic, arts, and athletic programs on our campuses and the opportunity to participate in a lively, diverse academic community in one of the greatest cities in the world." So we have benefits content.
- Pay: "Salary range is $122,202 - $126,478; Salary commensurate with qualifications, education and experience." The instruction says: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Here we have a salary range, so we can include Pay section with that range. The phrase "Salary commensurate with qualifications, education and experience." is somewhat filler but we still have actual range. We'll include the range.
- Schedule: Not mentioned. No schedule info. So we omit Schedule.
We must not repeat job title as heading. The job title is "Continuing Education Director". We'll not put that as heading.
We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings; we can fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. We can include a short paragraph at top maybe with position details like grant-funded, annual appointment contingent upon funding, location, etc. But we already have About the role covering some. We could include a brief
for metadata like "Position is grant-funded and annual appointment is contingent upon continued funding." But we might incorporate that into About the role. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details from the posting, but we can rephrase? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. That suggests we should not omit details, but we can rephrase? It says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Likely we should keep the details but can restructure into HTML. We should not leave out any details like the list of responsibilities, qualifications, etc. We need to include them. We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out the EEO statement, application instructions, closing date, job search category, etc. Also remove "How To Apply" section, "Current CUNY employees must apply..." etc. Also remove "Closing Date", "Job Search Category", "EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY", "EEO/AA/Vet/Disability Employer.", "Job ID:", "Location:" maybe we can drop or fold minor metadata into a short
. The instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we could include a short
with Job ID and Location maybe. But we might drop them as minor metadata. Safer to include a short
with Job ID and Location. We must not include duplicated lines. Ensure we don't repeat same sentences. Now craft HTML. We'll start with maybe a
for metadata: "Position is grant-funded and annual appointment is contingent upon continued funding. Job ID: 32745. Location: Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC), New York, NY." But location is given as "Borough of Manhattan CC". We'll keep. Then sections:
About the role
... description of BMCC, CEWD, mission, location, diversity, etc. Also mention that the Director reports to Assistant Vice President of Workforce Development and Continuing Education, provides strategic leadership and operational oversight for CEWD’s Allied Health portfolio, manages complex ecosystem, etc. We'll need to include all substantive info from that paragraph. Let's extract the About the role content: - "The Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC), part of the City University of New York (CUNY) system, is a vibrant, pluralistic learning community committed to students' intellectual and personal growth. The College bridges the economic and educational opportunity gap for students, more than half of whom are the first in their families to attend college. Working to strengthen a culture of care inside and outside the classroom, we share a passion for learning with students from around the world. Strategically located in downtown Manhattan, the College is in close proximity to the artistic communities of Tribeca and SoHo, the dynamic downtown financial district, and the center of New York City government at City Hall. BMCC prides itself on the diversity of our students. We are an inclusive community that promotes an atmosphere of mutual respect for each member's ethnicity, gender, age, disability, religion, political preference, sexual orientation, gender identity, and national origin, among other personal characteristics. BMCC's motto speaks to this shared sense of purpose and possibility: Start Here, Go Anywhere. We strive to increase degree completion, successful transfer, career achievement, and service and leadership within our community, New York City, and beyond. BMCC’s Center for Continuing Education and Workforce Development (CEWD) delivers high-impact, non-credit courses and certificate programs designed to advance adult learners into in-demand careers. CEWD provides sector-focused career training, with a focus on Allied Health, through tuition-based courses and grant-funded initiatives leading to industry-recognized credentials and pathways to living-wage jobs. Reporting to the Assistant Vice President of Workforce Development and Continuing Education, the Director of CEWD- Allied Health Programs provides strategic leadership and operational oversight for CEWD’s comprehensive Allied Health portfolio. This position manages a complex and evolving ecosystem that includes tuition-revenue courses, government-funded contracts, private foundation grants, and industry partnerships. The Director will lead program innovation and success—enhancing existing certificate programs, creating new programming and partnerships, expanding employer engagement, leveraging new opportunities such as Workforce Pell, and developing stackable credentials - all grounded in labor market research, employer feedback, and industry trends. The Director oversees fiscal strategy for the Allied Health portfolio, including budget development, grant proposals, compliance reporting, and revenue forecasting. This role requires a growth mindset, strategic vision, and the ability to navigate complex budgets, maintain impeccable data integrity, create a culture of accountability, and cultivate strong internal and external partnerships—especially across NYC’s healthcare sector. A central responsibility is rigorous performance monitoring to ensure the division meets program outcomes and revenue targets. The Director also performs other related duties as delegated by the Assistant Vice President of Workforce Development & Continuing Education." That's a lot. We'll put that in
under About the role. Now Responsibilities: The list after "In addition to the CUNY Title Overview information, other key duties include, but will not be limited to the following:" then a series of duties each ending with a period. We'll capture each as
- .
Now Requirements: maybe we separate Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications under a Qualifications section. But we also have a separate "Qualifications" heading allowed. We'll put both minimum and preferred under Qualifications.
Minimum: "Bachelor’s Degree and eight years' related experience in workforce development and/or higher education"
Preferred: list:
- At least five years of program management and supervisory experience
- Experience leading Allied Health programming within a college or university setting
- Deep knowledge of the Allied Health field, including NYC employer networks, certification requirements, and stackable credentialing models
- Demonstrated ability to manage multiple high-priority initiatives in a fast-paced environment across multiple sites and stakeholders
- Strong negotiation skills and the ability to build consensus between academic faculty, administrative staff, and corporate partners
- High level of comfort with data analytics, CRM systems, and budget management software to ensure data integrity
- Commitment to educational equity, adult learner success, and improving outcomes for all learners
We'll put these as
- . Now Skills: Could extract from preferred qualifications: program management, supervisory experience, Allied Health programming, knowledge of field
