Climate Corps® Green Fellowships Community of Practice
About Green Fellowships Community of Practice
We're building the next generation of climate professionals — together. Climate Corps' Green Fellowships Community of Practice brings together university and college program managers to share resources, learn collaboratively, and leverages Climate Corps' nearly 20 years of expertise into stronger fellowship programs across the country.
Interested in joining our community?
We're a network of more than a dozen higher education professionals serving over 500 students and united by a shared mission: preparing the next generation for climate and sustainability careers through hands-on learning. Our members are staff and faculty from colleges and universities across the country who manage fellowships, internships, and similar experiential learning programs that place students with companies and organizations working on climate goals. Both undergraduate and graduate programs are welcome – as are those actively building something new in this space.
