North Carolina Education Corps

Mission:

Our mission is to accelerate student learning and strengthen communities by mobilizing and empowering an untapped local workforce.

Program Description:

North Carolina Education Corps (NCEC) is a nonprofit working to accelerate student learning and strengthen communities by empowering caring adults to support students in data-informed ways. Currently, we are partnered with public school units across North Carolina to recruit caring adults form diverse backgrounds to become high-impact tutors employed by the public school unit. NCEC provides initial training, aligned with the science of reading and tutoring best practices. Our team of learning coaches extend that professional development through ongoing coaching support. These measures ensure high-impact tutors have what they need to help students thrive.
