The Brand
World Upside Down Arts Studio (WUDAS) is a one-stop shop for arts education offering classes in music, visual arts, dance, and theater for children, youth, and adults in Greenville County, SC. We’re in the start-up phase getting ready to launch in a couple of months.

History
World Upside Down (WUD) was founded as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization in 2013 with a mission to make arts education accessible and affordable to students K-12 around the world. WUDAS builds upon the WUD brand and mission as a for-profit venture, owned and operated by Joanna and Jairo Puello.

Founder and Owners
Joanna Puello, WUDAS Founder and Director, has 25 years of experience as an educator, nonprofit founder and director, instructional designer, and project manager. She plays the piano and violin and has participated as an actress and director in multiple theater productions. Jairo Puello, WUDAS owner and advisor, has 25 years of experience as an educator, nonprofit director, sales and customer service manager, and small business owner as an INDIE music artist. Their combined expertise and passion make them the perfect team for this new venture.

Mission
We believe that arts education is the best tool we can use to change the world for good--to give people a hope and a future. Although we do not have a Christian or religious curriculum, we aim to share the mind and heart of Jesus through every class we teach. If this mission is something that makes your heart beat faster, we would love for you to apply for an opportunity to join our team.

Board Certified Behavior Analyst® (BCBA®) Job Description
We need to hire a BCBA to assist us with launching a behavioral therapy program primarily geared towards but not limited to our autistic students. Our behavioral therapy program will be a drop-off, clinical practice which is independent from all of our other programming. We need to be able to charge Medicaid for our services.

• Provide our CEO with a business to do list (everything we need to do to be ready to open a behavioral therapy practice by August 2024)
• Assess our RBTs in training so that they can complete the assessment and sit for the RBT credentialling exam (the first candidate needs to take the test no later than July 2024)
• Provide 5% or more of supervision for therapy sessions after we open in August 2024

This is a new venture for us, and we are open to suggestions and guidance on everything stated in this job description.

Education & Experience
Must have Board Certified Behavior Analyst® (BCBA®) credentials
Must be able to provide guidance on business and medical rules/regulations

Schedule
Consultant chooses hours
We anticipate 2-10 hours a week of consulting - the most urgent need for June-July is getting ready to open in August. We do not expect the BCBA consultant to do the business work but to provide a to-do list for the owners so they can do the work and report back to the BCBA to ensure that they are in compliance so that Medicaid can be billed for therapy services.

Pay
Pay starts at $35/hour and is negotiable.

Benefits

• The BCBA consultant can negotiate a discount on tuition for arts classes that World Upside Down offers for self or family members
• No health insurance benefits will be provided
