School counselors are among the education professionals invited to apply for the U.S. Department of Education’s 2025-26 School Ambassador Fellowship program.
According to information about the program posted on the Department of Education’s website, “The School Ambassador Fellowship is a professional learning community designed to improve educational outcomes for students by leveraging the expertise of school-based practitioners in the creation, evaluation, and dissemination of information around national education initiatives.”
Applicants may choose to apply as full-time fellows — take a leave of absence from their local districts and support the Department’s efforts remotely on a daily basis — or as part-time fellows — continue serving in their local districts while working with the agency up to 10 hours a week.
The deadline to apply for the program is Monday, January 13, 2025, at 11:59 p.m. EST.
