We’re looking to add Spanish speaking Flex Coaches to our team! InsideTrack is passionate about student success. We partner with colleges and universities to improve enrollment, persistence, completion and career readiness. Our student support methodology uncovers first hand feedback about student goals and challenges. Through strategic guidance, staff training and student coaching, we help institutions turn this feedback into actionable insights that drive better student outcomes. As a member of the nonprofit Strada Education Network, we offer partners access to a comprehensive range of student success solutions as well as the latest research and insights on student success. We’ve supported more than 2 million students since 2001 and currently serve over 4,000 programs.
Join us and the leading institutions, foundations and others working to bring the transformative power of education to all individuals.
What does this role entail?
InsideTrack Flex Coaches focus on working either prospective or enrolled students to ensure they are getting the most out of their education experience. Success & Enrollment Coaching focuses on successfully moving a student forward on their student journey. Through a combination of phone, email, text and messaging through our uCoach platform, coaches work to understand a student’s primary goals, and facilitate a conversation to advance that student towards those objectives.
