The Education Entrepreneur Fellowship Open Call closes on Thursday, November 1, 2018. Up to six Fellows will be selected for the Winter 2019 cohort. Interested candidates are encouraged to apply online at https://www.on-ramps.com/jobs/1435.
“We believe that educators -- equipped with the right combination of inspiration, coaching and support -- can design and lead the types of schools our city deserves and the future demands,” said Elizabeth Shaw, CEO at CICS. “The Education Entrepreneur Fellowship program aims to inspire and identify education talent, actively invest in them, and champion their success as education entrepreneurs.”
During the nine- to 18-month cohort, selected Fellows will participate in a school venture process that leverages a research-based rubric for effective school and executive leadership. Additionally, Fellows will develop a personalized learning plan, a “dream canvas” that communicates an ambitious vision for their breakthrough education model to stakeholders and an innovation and change management plan designed to effectively bring their new school model to fruition.
Partnering with CICS, Fellows receive dedicated and structured support from an organization with a 20-year track record of delivering results across the K-12 continuum and a demonstrated commitment to education innovation in service of student success. CICS currently operates 14 campuses and two micro-labs, serving more than 8,000 students from kindergarten through high school across Chicago.
“CICS’ unique portfolio network of diverse learning models provides an ideal vehicle for empowering talented entrepreneurial educators and supporting their vision for how to redesign school to meet the demands of the 21st century,” said Shaw. “We are looking for education innovators to build on our platform by testing, refining and implementing new approaches to teaching and learning.”
Successful candidates for the Education Entrepreneur Fellowship will come from a variety of backgrounds, bringing qualifications and experiences directly related to the venture (e.g. fresh start, transformation, micro-lab) they seek to launch. Key mindsets, competencies and abilities of Fellows include, an innovative disposition, a compelling vision for a school or classroom of the future, a deep understanding of effective instructional design and delivery, the ability to maintain a student-centered school culture and exceptionally high expectation for student success.
“We are seeking individuals (or teams) that are dissatisfied with the status quo in public education and want to imagine and build better ways of ensuring students reach their full potential,” said Eric Lavin, Chief of Innovation at CICS. “Our hope and expectation is that this Open Call surfaces innovative ideas for the future of school and yields excellent candidates for our Education Entrepreneur Fellowship that exhibit high potential in our key selection competencies.”
