The Expanded Learning Research Evaluation Strategy Committee (RESC) is recruiting new members. The RESC is a diverse group of interest holders collaborating to identify evaluation and research strategies and recommendations for the California Department of Education’s Expanded Learning Division (CDE EXLD) to implement in partnership with the broader field. This collaboration leverages data to demonstrate the scope and impact of California’s Expanded Learning Opportunities.

Roles and Responsibilities:

• A one-year commitment with the opportunity to renew
• Attend up to 3 in-person meetings, approximately 6 hours each, plus travel (note: depending on committee work, an in-person meeting may be converted to a virtual meeting)
• Participate in up to 3 virtual meetings, approximately 2 hours each
• Work up to 10 hours per month outside of meetings, which may include:
  • Pre-meeting preparation,
  • Additional virtual meetings as needed, and
  • Monthly small group work based on assignments developed throughout the year.

For full-day meetings (10 a.m. – 4 p.m.), committee members will meet in person in Sacramento. They will travel at their own expense.
