Short-Term Consultants, NGO/Association Management

World Learning anticipates numerous new projects worldwide during 2011 and beyond to strengthen institutional and organizational capacity in a range of fields, including management of NGOs and/or associations. We are continuously seeking to expand our database of experienced practitioners to serve as short-term consultants in these areas.

Using World Learning’s Capacity and Performance Methodology, consultants will work as key team members in helping partner institutions (governmental entities, civil society organizations or others) to craft strategies to accomplish their goals with maximum efficiency and effectiveness. Guided by a project team leader who specializes in organizational development and performance improvement, consultants will contribute their expertise during assessment, analysis and development of recommendations and strategies.

Consultants must be willing and able to travel abroad for several weeks at a time. Foreign language skills and experience working in developing and or/transition countries are preferred, though not required. 

World Learning is a global not-for-profit organization with educational and international development operations in more than 77 countries. For over 79 years, World Learning, through its various divisions – The Experiment in International Living, SIT Study Abroad, the Graduate Institute, International Honors Program and International Development and Exchange Programs –  has built a deep and diverse array of effective offerings and services that transform individual lives and strengthen the capacity of communities and institutions to address pressing global needs.

Interested practitioners and consultants should register in the World Learning Skills Registry at gro.gninraeldlrow@4tnemtiurcer. We also ask that interested individuals e-mail their CV and a short cover letter to noting in the subject line “Attention: Interest in Capacity and Performance Consulting.”
