Senior Affiliate Program
The Senior Affiliate Program allows PREL to draw on the expertise of educational professionals who provide services to PREL in a variety of specialty areas. Senior Affiliates are resources for specific tasks and are employed on a contractual basis as needed. Affiliates have a demonstrated background in one or more areas applicable to PREL's mission and programs of work. Once chosen, an applicant is notified in writing of selection and added to the Senior Affiliate list here, on PREL's website.
Process:
If you are interested in being part of the Senior Affiliates group, please email a cover letter, resume, and two of your publications to mittej@prel.org
