Are you planning to pursue a career in youth development or teaching and looking for an exciting, hands-on summer experience working directly with youth to support learning and enrichment?
WEC seeks current college students to serve as part-time Worcester College Corps Fellows in its Woo-Labs partner youth-serving organizations. Woo-Labs is a network of community-based partners committed to advancing educational and racial equity and closing opportunity and achievement gaps by improving their capacity to provide high-quality, culturally responsive, project-based learning opportunities for youth. Fellows will work in-person directly at partner sites to execute these strategies, with a focus on building capacity for project-based learning opportunities and measurement framework data collection. Fellows will receive considerable support from both WEC and the partner site, including comprehensive pre-service training and regular professional development on youth development topics such as project-based learning, social emotional learning, trauma-sensitive practices, and state content standards alignment. Each Fellow will serve approximately 20 hours a week for 10 weeks for a total of 200 hours.
This position is ideal for those passionate about positive youth development and interested in expanding their ability to facilitate meaningful, authentic learning experiences for young people under the mentorship of experienced out-of-school-time programming professionals.
