Principal, Advisory and Capacity Building (Remote or Illinois-based)
Chicago, IL jobs
One Million Degrees accelerates community college students' progress on career pathways to economic mobility.
Over 60% of students who start community college do not complete a degree or successfully transfer to a four-year institution. However, 84% of jobs in the US require skills training beyond high school. OMD's holistic support model is designed to support community college students as they work toward degrees and careers. From tutors and coaches to financial assistance and professional development, OMD helps community college students succeed in school, work, and life, transforming their futures and the futures of those around them for generations.
The OMD student support model is rooted in evaluation and evidence: A randomized controlled trial conducted with the University of Chicago Inclusive Economy Lab shows that OMD scholars are 70% more likely to enroll, 94% more likely to persist, 73% more likely to earn a degree.
OMD is pursuing scale both through its direct service model with the City Colleges of Chicago and by launching a new, national expansion division: Advisory and Capacity Building (ACB), which provides consulting support and technical assistance to organizations seeking to build out OMD programming in their own unique contexts. ACB has developed or is developing four service offerings as part of this work that are focused on: 1) advancing community college completion, particularly for low-income, first generation and students of color; 2) supporting more equitable transfer outcomes for students transitioning from community college to university; 3) strengthening dual enrollment pathways to facilitate more high school graduates matriculating in and completing community college; and 4) propelling economic mobility post-graduation by aiding in the transition from community college to the workforce. We currently have a portfolio of five pilot projects-with partners throughout the country-in deploying these service offerings. Throughout this growing body of work, OMD seeks to promote its role as a national model for sustainable, scalable, and systemic change.
OMD Values:
OMD is deeply committed to our core values, as demonstrated in the work we do, our approach to change and growth, and our commitment to our staff.
Equity: We address historical and existing systemic inequities by taking a holistic approach to supporting students on their path to economic mobility.
Excellence: We hold ourselves to a high bar and provide exceptional support so that students are empowered to achieve their ambitions.
Community: We unite around putting students first, collaborating with partners, and celebrating our collective wins.
Learning: We each adapt to a changing world and refine our approach to support students, community members, staff, and stakeholders along the way.
Amplify: We advocate for our students and share what we've learned as leaders in the field.
