by Grace L. Schumaker on February 12, 2018

We’re looking to hire Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem experienced
educators and up-and-coming educators for this coming summer. Please
share this broadly with anyone you know that might be a good fit. Many
thanks!

Ecology Project International (EPI) is hiring field instructors and
field interns to teach field-based science/conservation/environmental
educational programs for middle and high school students. We are
currently hiring for the 2018 summer Yellowstone wildlife ecology
program.

Yellowstone field instructors teach ecology and science lessons, guide
students in accurately collecting data for research projects as they
work alongside scientists, transport students between field sites,
adhere to rigorous risk management protocols, lead students in
leadership activities/games, mentor field interns, help lead students in
meal preparation, and complete necessary course paperwork.

Yellowstone field interns, as a member of a three person field team,
guide students in the preparation of all meals in the field, maintain
EPI field equipment, transport students, lead students in leadership
activities/games, and support field instructors in conducting all
courses. As the internship progresses, interns will be called upon to
provide relevant ecology and science lessons to students.

Applications will be processed as received and hiring will happen on a
rolling basis until positions are filled. For a complete job
