Description

Who We Are: HealthCorps is a national non-profit organization committed to improving lives by addressing health challenges in communities through programming that includes innovative and engaging experiences for teens in education, leadership, and service learning, using near-peer mentorship with college-age mentors deployed into schools. Where You Fit In: The Learning & Development Specialist owns the mentor training and development experience and collaborates across departments to ensure curriculum design is effectively implemented by mentors. The role coaches mentors to be confident and skilled facilitators, builds mentor fluency in program administration (activity logs, proof of programming, photos and stories, and site communication), and pressure-tests activities before rollout. What You’ll Do: - Drive Mentor Training & Development: design and deliver onboarding; build ongoing professional development (office hours, live monthly sessions, coaching check-ins); develop practical mentor-ready resources (videos, how-to guides, templates, quick-reference sheets); review lesson plans and activities before rollout; translate curriculum into mentor-ready training; partner with Regional Program Managers; work with the data team to understand which activities mentors struggle with and where fidelity scores dip. - Reach College-Aged Mentors Where They Are: design training formats for how college students consume content (short videos, push notifications, text-based tips, interactive modules); experiment with new formats (mentor training podcast, quick-tip video series, LMS modules); stay current on what motivates and engages this generation. - Get Out in the Field: spend roughly 10-15% of time observing mentors, talking with them about their experience, and using learnings to improve training. Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in a related field or equivalent experience plus 3+ years of hands-on experience in education, instructional design, curriculum development, youth development, training and coaching, public health or related field. Familiarity with instructional design frameworks; ability to work with young adults/college students; experience across varied learning environments/age groups. Tech-savvy: comfortable with learning management systems (LearnUpon experience a plus), able to create/edit video, familiar with Canva, and quick to pick up new platforms. Ability to travel nationally as needed (estimated 10-15%). Success in This Role Looks Like: mentors feel confident/prepared/supported; smooth curriculum rollouts because mentors know how to implement new content; improved program fidelity scores; higher mentor retention; and the curriculum team has a trusted thought partner for implementation design. Benefits: full-time salaried role ($50,000-$55,000) with comprehensive benefits package including PTO, Medical/Dental/Vision insurance, Life insurance, and a 401(k) with company match; observes most federal holidays. Remote position with occasional evening hours and some overnight travel throughout the year may be required.
