February, 24 2012 - Verified by Goodwin UniversityThis position requires advanced listening and editing skills. I am able to pick projects from a queue and transcribe audio to text (verbatim or non-verbatim). Client projects range from recorded phone calls, interviews and lectures. Projects in English are sent in from around the world and require a 12-hour turnaround time, with a 99% accuracy rate.
This is a contract positions that aids online students completing 6-10 weeks terms. I work with undergraduate students taking online courses in criminal justice, safety and security.
Academic Coaches are highly qualified, experienced practitioners (minimum of a Masters Degree or greater) who most frequently serve as the liaison between the university faculty of record and students within the assigned course. The exact qualifications and requirements of an Academic Coach are tailored according to individual university and program needs. Often the Academic Coach is the student's initial point of contact, and acts in much a similar fashion that a traditional teaching assistant does in a university. Academic Coaches grade assignment per faculty directions, monitor discussion threads, answer inquiries/emails within 24 hours, monitor student engagement, provide online student support, and regularly collaborate with university faculty of record. Academic Coaches serve as facilitators and graders, while university faculty are the teachers of record.
I serve as our CORE (formerly ACE) officer and advocate continuous improvement and learning.

I took this position when completing a research study on offender recidivism and court alternative programs. My research involved civil demand payments, statistics on court pleas, and recidivism. This project focused on the two cities with the highest losses: Springfield, MA, and Holyoke, MA, but my assigned area was for MA and CT. This position also served as a coaching position to store-based loss prevention associates, as being an unbiased party for camera placement, CPTED techniques and allowed for the evaluation of blind spots in the camera footage. This company is now closed.
In this department, I hired and trained team members. I maximized the use of CCTV cameras to protect the company from false damage claims and used a computerized parking system to best track parking lot staff performance. I was also in charge of hiring and training for the department, training new staff members on how to pinpoint parking violations, use a radar gun and the proper technique for conducting a motor vehicle stop. Each month I was required to submit a report on company losses due to outside forces, staff errors (parking, accidents, etc.) and submit recommendations for improvement. This business was bought out.
This was a full-time position for a security contractor. I used a directive leadership technique with new officers to ensure they knew their essential job duties and expectations of their assigned site/position. I supported the teams to ensure they had the resources needed to perform their essential job duties. I also served as the liaison between the company and the one who initiated the contract. I was also responsible for ensuring staff attendance and payroll duties.
