Applications are invited for consideration for appointment to the following position:
DESCRIPTIVE TITLE: WELDING INSTRUCTOR
BUDGET TITLE: Teacher (E.69)
FTE: 100%
PROJECT & LOCATION: Mobile Welding Lab, Rochester Educational Opportunity Center, Rochester, NY
P/T/A #: 1186804-1-99309
DURATION OF APPT.: 4/15/24- 12/31/24
Function and Scope:

Rochester Educational Opportunity Center (REOC) is creating a Mobile Welding Lab program to serve eligible at-risk youth (ages 18-24), current inmates, and ex-offenders that have significant barriers to employment. The purpose of the REOC Mobile Welding program is to help guide at-risk offenders who are on probation to a better life by offering them skills training in a high-growth/high-demand and economically vital industry relevant to Monroe County's economy and critical life skills that many lack prior to their participation. While REOC currently has numerous programs addressing eligible at-risk youth, current inmates, and ex-offenders, we seek to augment and strengthen our efforts by establishing the REOC Mobile Welding Lab program. The REOC Mobile Welding Lab can be moved between prisons, community centers and educational facilities.
The REOC Mobile Welding Lab will be used as a live welding training lab to provide students real world training. The lab will be housed in a large trailer with live-welding units to train all welding processes (stick, MIG, and TIG) with 8 welding work stations. The lab will continuously travel throughout Monroe County, as needed, and can be stand-alone with a diesel generator or with shore power connectivity for extended durations. The lab will allow us to bring the training to underserved communities throughout Monroe County, especially the prison system. This will remove some of the transportation barriers. The lab will allow us to partner with Monroe County, City of Rochester, the prison system, community centers, and local school districts to provide the training to their constituents. Students completing the program will be eligible for the AWS Weld Test Certification in Shielded Metal Arc and Flux-Cored Metal Arc Welding (see details below).
There will be 3-4 cohorts per year with up to 10 students/cohort.
