Located in the fastest-growing region of the state, the University of North Georgia is a multi-campus university with an enrollment of nearly 20,000 students, making it one of the largest institutions in the University System of Georgia. UNG is focused on a mission of educational excellence, leadership development and community engagement opportunities that develop students into leaders for a diverse and global society. Through a variety of educational pathways that provide access and range from certificates and associate degrees to a professional doctoral program, UNG is responsive to regional education and economic development needs.

The University of North Georgia is currently accepting applications for Supplemental Instruction Peer Facilitators - Institutional Student Workers on the Gainesville campus. Supplemental Instruction (SI) aims to serve the UNG community by going beyond learning to studying intelligently and succeeding academically. We believe in offering an equal opportunity for students to learn, grow, and define academic success. We accomplish this by providing a fun, inclusive, and collaborative environment through peer-assisted study sessions for all students in the course. Students who attend SI sessions are guided by the SI facilitator to think critically, while on average earning half a letter grade higher than non-participants.
- Lead SI sessions two times per week for the assigned course using collaborative activities and active learning strategies.
- Hold office hours.
- Attend lectures with students to relearn course content, take notes, promote SI, and role model good student behavior.
- Planning for SI sessions, including: creating an agenda and preparing worksheets or other resources; and staff development, including: orientation training, bi-weekly meetings, observations of peer sessions, and meetings with supervisor and mentors.
- Facilitators gain leadership skills and training on the international SI model.
