NCCEP, the National Council for Community and Education Partnerships, is looking for two non-paid interns (approx. 30 hrs/week) for the Spring (January - May).
NCCEP is a national non-profit, non-partisan organization working to increase access to higher education for low-income, first generation, and minority students. Confident that education paves the way to social equity, NCCEP advances college access through advocacy, training, and research. To fulfill this mission, NCCEP establishes community-education partnerships, strengthens research-based college access programs, and develops tools and resources to provide educational opportunities for all students.
One of NCCEP's primary functions is to serve as an intermediary organization for public agencies, private and corporate foundations, and their grantees. Most significant of these efforts is the federally funded GEAR UP initiative (Gaining Early Awareness and Readiness for Undergraduate Programs) for which NCCEP serves as the national technical assistance provider, annual conference convener, and voice in Washington DC. NCCEP works to elevate and encourage replication of GEAR UP's best practices, and facilitates opportunities for GEAR UP to test program models that hold the promise of increasing student success, graduation rates, and postsecondary enrollment.
