Descrizione del lavoro

The Education Pioneers Summer Fellowship provides talented graduate students an opportunity to engage with critical challenges in the education sector, address systemic inequities, and help close the opportunity gap. We recruit candidates with skills in data analysis, strategy, operations, and project management to partner with leading K-12 school districts, charter schools, and other education and place-based organizations working to improve outcomes for students and communities.

As part of our continued focus on expanding the reach and impact of the Fellowship, Fellows may have the opportunity to work with place-based partnerships that bring together schools, community organizations, government, and other partners to address complex challenges at a broader systems level. These placements can offer Fellows the opportunity to contribute to work with impact that extends beyond a single school system or individual organization, improving outcomes across communities as a whole.

Fellows participate in a 10-week, project-based placement with a partner organization while receiving leadership development from EP alongside a cohort of peers.
