To accomplish this goal, the Transfer Access and Outreach Coordinator will collaborate with the broader USG Transfer Access team to create opportunities for career and campus exploration in alignment with USG’s unique student pathway model. This will include regular visits and engagement with local educational partners within the Montgomery County Public School System, as well as with regional community colleges.

The Coordinator will also be responsible for highlighting the unique added value that USG offers as a campus focused on career readiness, launching graduates into in-demand careers in the region. General responsibilities will include career exploration, and transfer coaching for prospective students, tabling and presentations at feeder institutions and community agencies/events, collaboration with industry hubs for coordination of high-quality events which showcase USG’s many benefits, and the development of partnerships with the regional educators, community-based organizations, and employers.
