Work to THRIVE (WtT), an initiative of MassHire Metro North Workforce Board (MNWB), is developing a new pilot program, NewBiz Entrepreneurship 101, to train and equip aspiring immigrant entrepreneurs living in Somerville, MA.

In developing the program, WtT seeks a Curriculum Development Consultant to assist with the creation and contextualization of an entrepreneurial curriculum geared towards the program’s immigrant students. The Curriculum Development Consultant will play a fundamental role in ensuring the curriculum is appropriate for the pre-determined class timeline, relevant culturally and linguistically, and adaptable across the three language cohorts. In addition, a key to success will be the Curriculum Development Consultant’s ability to collaborate with representatives from Rogers Park Business Alliance in developing the curriculum’s content.
