The candidate may also assist in the development of new and supplemental mindfulness programming, including the creation of asynchronous course materials, custom mindfulness programming, and the enhancement of existing course curricula.
Other responsibilities may include attending meetings, assisting with info sessions, and working with the broader SPS mindfulness team to meet program goals.
