Together, we can do anything

The KeelWorks Foundation gets people to work. We have three programs, one is for recent graduates needing experience to enhance their employability, another is for those transitioning to new careers or reaching for greater responsibility. The third program, in development, is for the most challenged unemployed, and this program will require considerable software and learning components.

The foundation has several software development projects and we need competent researchers and designs. Projects include an LMS, a portfolio generator (for volunteers), course layout, an application to support volunteer/employee onboarding, a similar one for participant processing, a time capturing app, an app for the complete course design process, and a website revision. We just launched a project for a residential water utility app that we hope will raise funds for the foundation.

Those applying need the time to practice user research and product design with Figma or some other tool for wireframing and prototyping. This person must be a strong collaborator and able to contribut at least seven hours a week.

About KeelWorks Foundation

Location:

2398 WEST BEACH RD, OAK HARBOR, WA 98277, US

Mission Statement

To support a better world with better citizens by fostering learning competence, emotional intelligence, and networked intelligence. KeelWorks especially wishes to bring greater participation to the economically disadvantaged across the globe. We are building a system to support upward mobility.

Description

KeelWorks is a 501c3 foundation. Since 2008 hundreds of graduate students and unemployed workers, reached gainful employment while helping KeelWorks build structure for change. We want to end poverty across the world, changing one life at a time. The KeelWings program for recent students and the KeelMate program for transitioning workers apply their learning while gaining experience supporting the KeelMaster program development. This experience reflected in a competent resume - with our guidance - qualifies them as a credible job applicant. The KeelMaster program is designed to support employment for the more challenged unemployed. This program begins with barrier identification and mitigation, assigns participants facilitated teams where they learn core competencies, ending with goal determination. They access training, and while doing so, join paid internships. Mutual support, core competencies, application, and clear and objective progress metrics support measured results. This structure for change will be replicated over and over across the globe. While other programs give the needy fish, we teach teach them to fish.
