College Posible Catalyze Program and E-Learning VISTA 20-21
 
 
 
College Possible is a growing nonprofit dedicated to coaching low-income students to-and-through college, breaking the cycle of poverty and empowering our workforce. Our rigorously-tested model earns top-of-field results that have helped 98 percent of students served earn admission to college and supported nearly 80 percent through graduation. A 2011 Harvard study found that the program more than doubles a student's chance of enrolling in a four-year college. Our after-school services include (1) academic support through ACT/SAT test preparation; (2) college application assistance; (3) financial aid consulting; (4) guidance in the college transition; and (5) support toward college degree completion. As an AmeriCorps organization, College Possible is recruiting college graduates to serve for one year to help make a college degree and college success possible for low-income students. With positions ranging from working directly with students to writing grants to coordinating events, there are many opportunities offered. Not only do College Possible AmeriCorps members make a difference in their community, they gain valuable experience for their next job or graduate school endeavor.

Member Duties : Further College Possible’s efforts to scale to additional schools and prepare Catalyze program staff and AmeriCorps members to serve first generation and students from low-income backgrounds in achieving a Bachelor’s degree to combat cyclical poverty at scale. Achieve this by evaluating current programmatic curriculum through collection and synthesis of relevant published research and best practices from analogous student success programs. Suggest improvements to programmatic curriculum based on this evaluation, then outline partner and coach competencies that support the implementation of this curriculum. Build program capacity by developing a comprehensive, year-long e-learning strategy that develops these curricular competencies. Create sustainability for project by creating an initial version of this strategy within our learning management system for use by coaches and partners.
