Education & Student Support Volunteer

In today’s job market, even entry‑level roles increasingly require prior training and experience—but few employers can teach on the job. Many students are stuck in a paradox: to get a job you need experience, yet experience requires a job. Glow Up ACS exists to close that gap.

Glow Up ACS is a nonprofit workforce development organization that prepares students and early‑career professionals for professional environments through hands‑on training programs, structured internships, mentorship, skills development, and real‑world project experience. Our programs are designed to simulate real workplace expectations, so participants do not enter the workforce unprepared.

We primarily serve college students, recent graduates, and individuals from underrepresented or nontraditional backgrounds who need practical experience—not just credentials—to compete in today’s hiring landscape. Through project‑based learning, participants build marketable skills, professional portfolios, and the confidence required to navigate modern, often remote‑first workplaces.

At our core, we value accessibility, equity, and learning by doing. We believe workforce training should be intentional, rigorous, and aligned with real industry needs. By pairing student talent with real organizational projects, Glow Up ACS supports both community partners and emerging professionals—creating meaningful pathways from education to employment.

Glow Up ACS is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit focused on helping college students who struggle to gain experience due to barriers such as lack of prior internships, limited networks, or systemic disadvantage. Our work centers on education, training, and professional readiness.

As an Education & Student Support Volunteer, you’ll help us support students as they learn tools, workflows, and professional expectations. This role is not about teaching in a traditional classroom sense—it’s about guidance, encouragement, and helping students feel capable.

• Supporting students as they learn tools and platforms
• Helping answer questions or explain workflows
• Providing feedback or encouragement
• Assisting with structured learning materials
• Supporting professional development efforts

You do not need prior teaching experience. Patience, clarity, and empathy matter far more.

Fully remote. Volunteers participate based on their availability, with flexible hours and no rigid shift requirements.

• Experience supporting real students in a nonprofit environment
• Professional development support (resume, cover letter, Linked In)
• The satisfaction of directly helping students overcome confidence and access barriers

A reliable computer, webcam, microphone, and the ability to use Slack or browser‑based tools is required.
