Produce / review content for Texas OnCourse parent / higher education platforms.
I'm still new, so I'm still learning what my days will look like... right now, I'm learning all about Texas OnCourse, how it came to be, what products are being developed / refined, and what the different interactions and relationships are. Once I get my feet on the ground, I will be researching / reviewing and developing content for portions of the OnCourse resource library that aren't built out yet, primarily for families and higher education advisers.
Here's the first step for college students
Do an internship. Hands-down the best way to learn. If you're interested in working for a college / university, depending on what you want to do, you will likely need at least a Bachelor's degree if not a Master's. If you want to teach at the college level, you'll need a PhD. Many Master's programs require an internship as part of your coursework, but if not, find a way to work with a professor / adviser / coach / staff person whom you admire.
