OPC Position with International Education Partners (DC)
International Education Programs (www.iepabroad.org) is looking to hire someone in DC for the fall semester, to coordinate a program for visiting students. IEP also plans study abroad trips for university classes, which JET alumni have led previously led, but this is for a U.S. post-secondary institution that will be sending 10 university students and a faculty member to DC for the fall term.
The students will be doing internships in the DMV area and so the company is assisting with funding a Program Coordinator to do the following:
- Conduct a welcome orientation
- Assist in planning bi-weekly events (we have them pretty much decided already actually)
- Plan a welcome, thanksgiving and farewell dinner)
- Be available via cell for any student concerns, program changes, etc.
The OPC will ideally be someone that lives in the DMV (DC city proper area), who has a full-time position but does not travel for work and knows DC well.
Interested candidates can send their information to Scott Tayloe at scott@iepabroad.org.
