Open Positions
Our Culture
At NOCP, we are looking for staff who go above and beyond for our students both academically and outside the traditional classroom role. We believe it’s imperative that our students not only make significant academic progress, but also that they learn the soft skills necessary to navigate life’s challenges.
College Bridge
While the transition to college can present many challenges for students, particularly for students who will be the first in their families to attend college, NOCP is excited to partner with College Bridge New Orleans to help our alumni navigate financial aid application, college enrollment, and first year success. Developed from an NOCP initiative, College Bridge provides success coaching and peer advising to support students and family throughout the college experience.
