Reports to: Director of Workforce Development

EDvance College is a nonprofit, accredited institution of higher education built for and by the early education workforce. We reimagine higher education so it works for working educators and strengthens outcomes for children, families, and communities.

Our mission is to empower the early education workforce to learn, transform, and lead through reflective, practice-based higher education. Through accessible, earn-and-learn degree pathways, we support educators to earn their degrees, advance in the field, and lead change in their communities.

Our model is grounded in real classrooms and designed around the realities of working adults. We combine practice-based coursework, high-touch support, and strong employer partnerships to remove traditional barriers to higher education and connect learning directly to practice.

As EDvance continues to grow, we are moving from a start-up institution into a more scaled and integrated model. This means building stronger systems, deepening alignment across teams, and expanding our reach while staying grounded in the relationships and student-centered approach that define our work.

We are looking for team members who are deeply committed to educators, open to change, and motivated to build and refine systems that support student success at scale.
