Are You Passionate About Working with Kids and Making a Positive Impact on Their Lives? Are You Looking to Create Meaningful Change Within the Twin Cities Community? Look No Further! Project Success Is Seeking Dedicated Volunteers to Join Us at the Project Success Institute as Certificate Coaches!  

 

The Project Success Institute is committed to empowering high school students by providing them with unique opportunities to explore new experiences, develop life skills, and discover exciting career paths through our certificate programs. We offer free classes to all MPS high school students in subjects including bike tech, money management, baking, and coding. 

As a volunteer coach for the Institute, you will play a crucial role in guiding and mentoring students on their journey of self-discovery. Your primary responsibilities will include facilitating conversations, asking thought-provoking questions, and actively engaging with students to drive their learning and interest. You will also have the opportunity to share your own real-life experiences, providing valuable insights and inspiration. Previous experience in the subject is NOT necessary to be a coach at the Institute. We believe that anyone with a passion for motivating young minds and a desire to learn will be an excellent coach.
