PLI Director, Principal Leadership Institute Program
University of California Los Angeles


Requisition Number: JPF09922

Summary of Organization/Unit

Center X in UCLA's School of Education & Information Studies seeks applications for a Director of its Principal Leadership Institute (PLI) Program. PLI is designed to attract outstanding diverse educators who have recognized potential and who have administrative interests to serve in the most marginalized communities. This rigorous14-month program grants a Master's degree as well as a California Tier 1 Administrative Credential. The successful candidate will provide leadership in the administration, design, and teaching of the program.

PLI is a part of Center X in the UCLA School of Education and Information Studies (Ed&IS). Center X was established in 1994 with a vision to dramatically change schooling for the underserved students of Los Angeles. It provides a unique setting where researchers and practitioners collaborate to design and conduct programs that prepare and support K-12 teachers and administrators in urban schools. Center X serves as a local and national resource for professional development and is home to over thirteen programs, projects and affiliates, the Teacher Education Program, and the Principal Leadership Institute. These combined resources are focused on the mission of transforming public schooling to create a more just, equitable, and humane society.
Principal Leadership Institute

For the past 25 years, PLI has committed to develop and support community-based diverse leaders who are guided by socially just principles and are devoted to transforming urban schools into places where all students thrive. PLI has educated over 850 exceptional graduates who overwhelming come from the communities they serve, acting as agents of change by making schools more equitable. This dynamic program prepares leaders to enter the workforce ready to grapple with the shifting sociopolitical culture and confront racial injustice that harm the constituents of urban schools. Through engagement with rigorous and innovative course work, PLI students investigate areas such as improvement science, culturally sustaining pedagogy, critical race theory, and asset-based data analysis, then apply their learning to hands on experience in fieldwork. PLI graduates leave with an unwavering commitment to social and racial justice, and the imperative to make a difference in the schools they serve.

PLI is also home to the Reciprocal Learning Partnerships for Equity Framework (RLP). RLP is a framework that supports and empowers leaders to explicitly identify inequitable practices in classrooms and schools and to take action that will lead to improved student outcomes. PLI intentionally centers this framework in the program to highlight the critical need to understand that new knowledge is co-constructed through interactions, and that only new knowledge will disrupt institutionalized practices of inequity. PLI graduates leave the program as experts in conducting RLP conversations and facilitating educators to act on equity problems of practice.
Summary of Position

The program requires a collaborative, passionate and innovative director that brings a record of successful school leadership and action reflecting the principles of anti-racism and theories of progressive and innovative learning and leading. A successful candidate is someone who thinks creatively about the preparation of school leaders, embodies the theory that knowledge is co-constructed, not imparted, and builds community as well as fosters cross-organizational collaboration.
Type of Supervision

Reporting to the Chair of the Department of Education and the executive director of Center X, the director is responsible for the administration and coordination of the development, implementation, maintenance, evaluation, and improvement of the PLI program. Under the direction of the Ed&IS Chair, and working in coordination with the PLI faculty director, the PLI director will establish operational and programmatic objectives and create strategies to increase program resources, and effectiveness of outreach for prospective students.
