Health Education and Communication Coordinator

We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes purpose, duties, qualifications, skills, work environment, etc. Pay is given: $72,092 - $103,649. Schedule? Not explicit; maybe hybrid location but schedule not given. Benefits not given. So we include About the role (purpose), Responsibilities (duties), Qualifications/Requirements (maybe combine), Skills (important skills and characteristics). Pay section with salary. Possibly Work Environment not requested as a heading; we could include under About the role or Responsibilities? But we should not create sections without content. So we will have:

About the role

... purpose paragraph ...

Responsibilities

• ... each duty ...

Qualifications

Education: ... Experience: ...

Skills

• ... each skill ...

Pay

$72,092 - $103,649

We should not include Benefits or Schedule as they are not specified. We must preserve all substantive information: include location hybrid, must live and work in Michigan, posting date, etc. Could fold location and posting date into About the role paragraph or a short p. 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 short p after About the role maybe:

Location: Hybrid, Lansing – Must Live and Work in the State of Michigan. Posted Thru: 9/20/2026.

We must not repeat job title as heading. Already not. We must remove boilerplate: EEO, e-verify, etc. Also remove "Other duties as directed." maybe keep as part of responsibilities? It's generic; but it's substantive? It's a line; we could keep as a duty. It's okay. We must not include "Viewing a CRT or VDT screen over 75% of the time." That's work environment; we could include under About the role or Responsibilities? Not a heading; we could include in a short p under About the role or maybe under Responsibilities? It's not a duty but a requirement. Could include in Qualifications? Might be better to include in a short p under About the role or maybe under Responsibilities? Since it's about work environment, maybe we add a short p after Qualifications: "Work Environment: Must have reliable home internet connection; valid vehicle operator’s license; viewing screens >75% of time; occasional work outside normal business hours." That is substantive. We must not include "RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE WORK OF OTHERS: No assigned responsibility." That's minor; could drop. We must not include "IMPACT ON PROJECTS..." maybe keep as part of About the role? It's substantive about impact; could include in About the role paragraph. We must not include "Required Communication Contact Person/Group Frequency Purpose" table; that's detail about communication contacts; we could incorporate as part of Responsibilities? It's a list of contacts; we could include as a duty: "Coordinate with Division Director daily, BIDP Communications Coordinator daily, Section Managers weekly, Program/Project leads as needed, Division Staff as needed." That's substantive. We need to preserve all substantive information; we should not lose any.

(tagline) - MPHI is an EEO employer that participates with e-verify. (boilerplate, remove) We need to output only HTML fragment. Use

for section headings. Use

• for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

  for prose. We need to decide sections: About the role (purpose + organization description + location/posted date + impact + exempt status maybe). Responsibilities (duties list). Qualifications (education + experience). Skills (important skills and characteristics). Pay (salary). Work Environment maybe could be part of About the role or a separate section? There's no heading for Work Environment in the list of allowed headings; but we could include 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 should only use those headings. Work Environment is not in the list, but we could incorporate its content into About the role or Responsibilities or Qualifications? Probably About the role is fine to include work environment details. We also have "Required Communication Contact Person/Group Frequency Purpose" which is basically a list of contacts; could be part of Responsibilities (coordinate with...). We also have "IMPACT ON PROJECTS..." which could be part of About the role. We also have "For purposes of employment standards, this classification is “Exempt”..." could be part of About the role. We also have tagline "MPHI works with you..." could be part of About the role. We must not repeat job title as heading. We must not include boilerplate EEO/e-verify. Now construct HTML. We'll start with a short p for location and posted date maybe under About the role. Let's craft:
