General Purpose

The Learn2Earn Coordinator is effectively the internal and external “face” of the initiative. S/he is responsible for managing the Coordinator contract in the same fashion as a start-up company’s founder. There are many and varied responsibilities that will arise as the initiative grows. The ability to be a methodical thinker and relationship builder, as well as an excellent manager of all the components of the Learn2Earn initiative, are essential traits. Also critical to this person’s success are (1) the understanding of the adult education programs and institutions in Fresno, (2) the educational needs of the community, (3) the ability to manage a citywide marketing and communication campaign, and (4) the ability to work with the L2E Educational Advisors to implement the initiative.
