About the Position
Are you a college graduate who is passionate about lifting other students as you climb your own ladder of success? You could inspire the next generation by becoming a college coach.
You will work with up to 450 college students virtually — by phone, text messaging, email, and social media — to help them navigate the beginning of their college career and, ultimately, achieve their dream of earning a degree. In your monthly calls with your students, you will use your academic and personal experiences, as well as Beyond 12's coaching curriculum, to help your students set goals, create education plans, navigate financial aid, build relationships, and manage their time effectively so they can be successful in and out of the classroom. For every student, you will track and document data about your students' progress to serve them most effectively. As a college coach, you will help our organization better understand college persistence and graduation trends.
Location: Remote (work from home), but targeting candidates in the United States who are based in California, Georgia, and Illinois, with consideration for your experience as noted below.
