Position Summary: The Health Institute at Hardy is an innovative and dynamic program that launched in August 2025, offering career-connected pathways for students interested in high-demand healthcare fields and is unique within Philadelphia. Through a partnership with the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), fueled by generous funding support from Bloomberg Philanthropies, students will engage in hands-on learning, including labs, internships, and dual-enrollment courses, leading to certifications in healthcare fields through three pathway programs focused on clinical, operations, and administration roles in healthcare. We seek dynamic educators to teach the foundational Introduction to Health Care Careers I & II courses for 9th grade and 10th-grade students. This role is pivotal in building students' understanding of healthcare careers and cultivating technical, interpersonal, and critical thinking skills essential for success. Mastery's Benefits Package: We offer a full benefits program and opportunities for professional growth. Some of our most popular benefits include our 403(b) retirement plan for PA employees (with a 5% match from Mastery for full-time employees), enrollment in the State of New Jersey Pension Plan for NJ employees, a robust Employee Assistance Program, mental health and counseling programs, an annual Professional Development Fund, and discounts and perks at a myriad of retailers, travel organizations, insurance providers, and so much more, as well as access to the HealthAdvocate Helpdesk to help you navigate various benefits-related topics.

We like to think our calendar is a benefit of working here too! Why You Should Apply: Studies have shown that women and people of color are less likely to apply for jobs unless they believe they can perform every job description task. We are most interested in finding the best candidate for the job, and that candidate may come from a less traditional background. Mastery may consider an equivalent combination of knowledge, skills, education, and experience to meet minimum qualifications. If you are interested in applying, we encourage you to think broadly about your background and skill set for the role.
