Organizations

 One organization I found very interesting was the World at Work website.  The site can be found at http://www.worldatwork.org . This site is a not- for -profit oragnaization that provides education, conferences and research focused on global resources. This site has a  job site link to which you post your resume for jobs around the world. I chose this site because I like the fact that it mentioned global resources. Some parts of the world do not have the same resources as others,  This site works  with edcuational leaders around the wprld to help provide quality education.

Another organization was the Parent Involvement Matters site. This site can be found at  http://www.parentinvolvementmatters.org .  This site emphasizes the importance of a child's social, emotional and intellectual learning and development. We all know that paretns must be a part of this development. This site also has a great get involved link that gives you ways to get involved with the organizarion. You can join the organization as a consultant if you work with families or schools.

 The third organization I chose was Unicef. The site can be found at http://unicef.org
 Unicef works hard to promote edcaution around the world and helps with nutrition and medcial needs of children and families.  There are job oppotunities within the unicef organization from volunterring to a Senior staff position around the world. You must summit a resume and a United Nations Personal History P11 and then email them to the unicef site. They have job opportunities around the globe and you chose where you would like to go.

    1. I selected UNICEF Jamaica. I had heard of the organization before but never realized how much they do specifically to better the lives of young people in these challenged pockets of the world. I will have to check out the Parent Involvement Matters site. Thanks!
