Pathways Fellowship Information Session #2

About the Pathways Fellowship:
An initiative of ExpandED Schools, the Pathways Fellowship is a ten-month program designed to provide people of color, who are currently enrolled in or recently graduated college, with an enriching experience that offers: professional development workshops, an after-school practicum, early career support, mentorship, and networking opportunities.
Program Benefits
Early Career Training and Support
As a program participant, you will have the opportunity to receive training in instructional and classroom management techniques which lead to applying those skills in your after-school practicum. Apart from the after-school practicum, you will receive career advisement to support your successful placement in a traditional certification program, alternative certification program or teaching residency.
Mentorship
All fellows are partnered with a trained mentor teacher based on a reflective matching protocol that considers the needs and aspirations of the fellow. Mentors support the development of new teacher effectiveness, build teacher leadership, increase student learning, support equitable outcomes for every learner, and support the fellows as they develop their teacher identity.
Paid After-School Practicum
Through partnerships with community-based organizations, program participants will be placed at after-school programs in one of the five boroughs. In addition, participants can earn at least $16 per hour (based on their experience and the role) while they complete the after-school practicum at their respective field placement sites.
Networking Opportunities
Pathways Fellows will have the opportunity to network with educators, school leaders, recruitment officers, and other education-related professionals to get an in-depth understanding of the teaching profession.
