ABOUT WARRIOR-SCHOLAR PROJECT

In partnership with colleges and universities, Warrior-Scholar Project (WSP) hosts intensive, one-week college-preparatory academic boot camps for enlisted veterans and transitioning service members. Boot camps are offered in three disciplines: Humanities, STEM, and Business. Through faculty lectures, workshops and research projects, tailored assignments, and one-on-one tutoring, warrior-scholars acquire the skills to succeed in higher education and navigate the cultural shift from military service to college. Throughout the course, warrior-scholars are mentored by student veterans who have successfully transitioned from the military to college. WSP also offers workshops tailored to address the unique needs of veterans enrolled in community colleges and targeted programming for underrepresented veterans. All programming is provided at no cost to warrior-scholars. WSP also hosts additional programming for boot camp alumni, including a graduate school support program, academic support workshops, professional development information sessions, and community engagement opportunities.

DESCRIPTION

Each WSP Mobile Training Team (MTT) consists of 3 successful student-veterans who are alums of the WSP boot camp program. Fellows work collaboratively under the supervision of a Lead Fellow to support the programmatic and logistical execution of WSP boot camps. While responsibilities may vary depending on the assigned team and academic discipline, Fellows play an essential role in creating a supportive and engaging learning environment. All Fellows are responsible for facilitating academic discussions, supporting and mentoring program participants, coordinating program implementation, and completing administrative tasks in collaboration with WSP staff, campus faculty, and campus stakeholders to ensure that WSP programs are run according to established standards. Effective facilitation requires preparation, communication, adaptability, sound judgment, and the ability to create an environment where participants actively engage in their learning. To prepare Fellows for this responsibility, WSP provides the training, curriculum resources, and ongoing support necessary to facilitate academic discussions, encourage critical thinking, and support participant success throughout the boot camp experience.
