“Working for ACC is an amazing opportunity to learn about conservation and develop professional skills. You learn to work closely with diverse individuals and meet project partners from the USFS, NPS, and other local recreation organizations which help with networking. You learn a wide variety of skills, get to work hands on, and spend time in the outdoors. ACC also provides AmeriCorps service positions that offer an educational award upon completion of a set term. It is a great job for students interested in the outdoors and conservation. ”
