Community College Reporter

If you’re a talented journalist who’s passionate about the future of California, then you might be the perfect candidate to be our first Community College reporter. With more than 100 campuses throughout the state, California Community Colleges is the largest system of higher education in the United States. These colleges are an important bridge to the state’s future, preparing students for the workforce or four-year colleges and adjusting to the changing demands and opportunities of an evolving economy. This position is part of a team covering higher education at CalMatters. The team includes another higher education reporter as well as our College Journalism Network with student reporters around the state writing about campus issues. This journalist will also work with other beats at CalMatters as we look at stories about the future of work — how things are changing and how employers, educators and others are responding.
