The Dhillon School of Business invites applications for casual Teaching Assistants to support Indigenous Governance & Business Management (IGBM) 2500, “Introduction to Indigenous Governance and Business Management”, taken by many Dhillon undergraduate students to fulfill a program requirement to successfully complete an indigenous course.

Teaching Assistants would be hired for each term individually, and do not need to commit to availability for both terms.
We are looking for dedicated and inspired professionals, graduate students, or senior undergraduate students who will encourage students to strive for excellence not only in the classroom but in the way they apply their knowledge to their communities and careers. All applicants are thanked in advance for their interest. Only those selected for interviews will be contacted.

Teaching assistants will be expected to carry out the following activities:
- Working with the students to do weekly in-class activities at the end of each class session, including leading discussions in smaller groups, hands-on exercises, guiding student reflections, and other activities designed by the instructor;
- attending each class session so they can link lecture discussion to the weekly activities;
- Marking assessments for the course following rubrics provided by the instructor;
- Invigilate any exams; and
