About Pathfinder

What is Pathfinder?

Pathfinder brings together in one place all the job and professional development opportunities available to the dedicated people who work in after-school, expanded learning time and youth programs in New York City. Using this site, staff can easily find the right trainings for themselves—whether on-line or in-person, informal or credit-bearing, short workshops or full conferences. They can get ahead in their careers by searching for job opportunities and creating and posting their own resumes and cover letters. Employers can use Pathfinder to select trainings for their staff and find top talent for their organization. The site is also a resource for training providers, who can recruit participants and keep up on what’s happening in the field.

Who’s behind this project?

Pathfinder is a project of The After-School Corporation (TASC) made possible by generous funding from The Wallace Foundation, the New York City Department of Youth and Community Development and the Booth Ferris Foundation. TASC is working in New York and the nation to change public policy, expand public funding, and demonstrate successful models so all kids from all backgrounds can have high-quality learning experiences beyond regular school hours that support, educate and inspire them.
