We need to output only HTML fragment, no html/body tags, no markdown fences. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Include sections only if posting has real specific content. We need to parse the posting. Key info: - Salary: Depends on Qualifications (no specific amount). According to rule: do NOT create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "Salary: Depends on Qualifications". That's not a specific amount, but it's still a statement about pay. The rule 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. "Depends on Qualifications" is similar to "commensurate with experience". Likely considered filler/placeholder. So we should NOT include Pay section. - Job Type: FT Faculty (full-time). Could be Schedule? Not given. No schedule details. - Job Number, Closing date, Location, Division: these are metadata; we should fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. Probably include a short paragraph with location and maybe closing date? The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we can include a

with location and maybe closing date. - Position Announcement: descriptive paragraph. - Summary Of Responsibilities: list of duties. - Qualifications / Licenses / Certifications: required qualifications. - Preferred Qualifications: list. - Documents Needed To Apply: required documents (CV, cover letter, statement of teaching philosophy, graduate transcripts). This is application instructions; we should remove application instructions per rule: "Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions." So we should drop the Documents Needed To Apply section. - Knowledge / Skills / Abilities: broken into Knowledge, Skills, Abilities. This is substantive content; we can include sections for Knowledge, Skills, Abilities? The allowed headings are About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Knowledge could go under Requirements or Qualifications? Probably Qualifications covers required qualifications; Knowledge/Skills/Abilities could be under Skills? But we have separate headings for Skills. We could map Knowledge to Requirements? However the instruction: Use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those exact headings if we have content. We need to decide which sections to include. We have: - About the role: could be the Position Announcement paragraph describing the role. - Responsibilities: the Summary Of Responsibilities list. - Requirements: maybe the Qualifications / Licenses / Certifications (required) plus maybe Knowledge? But we have separate Skills heading. - Qualifications: maybe the Preferred Qualifications? Actually Qualifications heading could be used for both required and preferred? But we already have Requirements. Might combine required qualifications under Requirements, and preferred under Qualifications? Or we could treat Qualifications as the required qualifications, and Skills as the knowledge/skills/abilities. Let's see typical usage: Requirements often list minimum qualifications; Qualifications could be preferred qualifications. But we have both required and preferred. Could put required under Requirements, preferred under Qualifications. Then Skills for Knowledge/Skills/Abilities. - Benefits: posting mentions "UVU offers highly competitive benefits to faculty." That's a statement about benefits but not specific. According to rule: never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It states "offers highly competitive benefits" but not specifics. That's vague; could be considered filler? It's not specific like health insurance, retirement. Might be considered not specific enough. Safer to omit Benefits section. - Pay: we decided to omit. - Schedule: not specified; omit. Thus we will have sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Let's extract content. About the role: The Position Announcement paragraph: "The School of Education at Utah Valley University invites applications for a full-time tenure-track faculty position as a Secondary Education faculty member with expertise in disciplinary literacy, classroom management, educational technology, or assessment of teaching quality in the Secondary & Special Education Department. The successful candidate will have a demonstrated knowledge of teacher education principles and practices as well as relevant K-12 teaching experience. This individual will teach undergraduate courses in secondary education and related subjects aligned with their expertise. The position will begin on August 1st, 2027. UVU's School of Education prepares forward-thinking educators and leaders through innovative teaching, reflective teaching practice, cutting-edge research, ethical AI integration, and impactful partnerships with schools, communities, and industries. The School of Education seeks to build on a tradition of excellence in teacher and leader preparation while looking to the future. The School of Education currently offers undergraduate degrees in teacher education and graduate degrees in educational leadership, school counseling, applied behavior analysis, and graduate certificates and endorsements, as well as several other programs. These degrees help fill the growing demand for educator professionals across the state of Utah. Utah Valley University is a comprehensive state institution of higher education with over 46,000 students and offers highly competitive benefits to faculty. UVU is located in Orem, Utah, near some of the premier outdoor activity areas in the country. Orem is on the western front of the Wasatch Mountains and offers access to numerous outdoor activities, including snow sports, hiking, mountain biking, and hunting. The UVU campus is served by a wonderful public transit system, including a rail line that runs along the entire Wasatch Front urban corridor. The UVU School of Education has strong ties with other universities and with professionals within and outside of Utah. UVU and the School of Education support students in engaged learning by offering many experiential learning opportunities." We should keep all that. Responsibilities: The Summary Of Responsibilities list: - Teach professional-level courses. - Prepare instructional materials (course outlines, syllabi, exams, etc.) as necessary. - Maintain a student-centered approach to education. - Maintain and submit accurate, up-to-date reports and records related to student accountability and performance. - Conference with students regarding coursework, field work, and academic endeavors. - Mentors students in teacher performance assessments. - Improve professionally and maintain currency in the courses taught. - Participate in scholarly activities. - Provide service to the college. - Participate in the school accreditation process regarding key assignments, etc. - Develop positive relationships with colleagues, public school teachers, administration, and other education stakeholders. - Serve on committees and attend faculty and other meetings as assigned. - Perform other job-related duties, as assigned. We need to put each as
  • inside
      . Requirements: Required qualifications: "Graduation from an accredited institution with a doctoral degree in education or in a closely-related field (or ABD with dissertation defense scheduled; degree must be in hand by position start date). At least two years of relevant K-12 learner-centered teaching experience." We could also include "Preferred Qualifications" under Qualifications heading. Qualifications (preferred): list: - At least two years of college/university teaching experience. - Earned relevant professional license or credentials. - Additional K-12 teaching experience. - Experience supporting preservice teachers in a capstone project and/or student teaching supervision. We need to keep as list. Skills: Knowledge / Skills / Abilities section broken into Knowledge, Skills, Abilities. We need to preserve all detail. We could combine into a single
        under Skills heading, but we need to keep the distinction? The instruction: Use
        • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

          for prose. For Knowledge/Skills/Abilities, it's a list of items; we can make a

            with each bullet. However there are subcategories Knowledge, Skills, Abilities each with multiple items. We could either flatten all items into a single list, or we could keep subheadings? But only allowed headings are the set; we cannot add extra headings like Knowledge. So we need to incorporate them into prose or list without extra headings. Perhaps we can make a

            that includes the knowledge, skills, abilities sentences. But we risk losing structure. Better to make a

              with each item, ignoring the subcategory labels, but we need to preserve the content exactly. We can include the label as part of the list item text, e.g., "Knowledge: Thorough knowledge of and demonstrated competence in Content Literacy, Classroom Management, Teacher Performance Assessments or Instructional Technology." etc. Thus we will create a
                with each bullet representing each bullet from the original, preserving the subcategory label as part of the text. Let's extract each bullet: Knowledge: - Thorough knowledge of and demonstrated competence in Content Literacy, Classroom Management, Teacher Performance Assessments or Instructional Technology. - Thorough knowledge of current research, instructional theory, methods, strategies, assessments, innovations, and techniques in pre-service teacher education, including clinical programming and teacher performance assessment. - Knowledge of cultural competencies to work effectively with all students and colleagues. - Knowledge of and willingness to uphold professional and ethical teaching standards. - Knowledge of content and skills required to teach courses in Content Literacy and mentor students in teacher performance assessments to prospective teachers and graduate students. Skills: - Skills in managing a productive teaching/learning environment. - Skills in mentoring prospective teachers in performance teacher assessments. - Skills in working collaboratively with students, university and school colleagues, and the community. - Excellent communication skills and ability to relate well with students and colleagues. - Effective human relations skills, including working with individuals from all backgrounds. Abilities: - Ability to work effectively in an environment that values exceptional care, exceptional accountability, and exceptional results. - Ability to communicate and relate positively with colleagues, students, and 7-12 personnel. - Ability to produce scholarly work. We'll put each as
              • . Now we need to include metadata short

                for location and closing date maybe. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

                or drop it. So we can include a

                with: Location: Main Campus - Orem; Closing: 10/25/2026 11:59 PM Mountain; Job Type: FT Faculty; Position starts August 1, 2027. Also maybe Job Number? Could drop. We'll include location, closing, job type, start date. We should not repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it). So we won't add a heading for the title. Now construct HTML:

                Location: Main Campus - Orem. Closing: 10/25/2026 11:59 PM Mountain. Job Type: FT Faculty. Position start date: August 1, 2027.

                Then sections:
