We have a Virtual Volunteering Project that will allow our members to have an impact.
The Mentor Care Officer has the unique opportunity to coordinate with the Lint Center pool of senior members of the intelligence community and national security community.
Would you like to learn about intelligence or national security? Are you looking to make an impact with your expertise on National Security issues? Do you consider yourself someone who can empower others with your knowledge in counterintelligence? Are you passionate about advancing the study of National Security globally?
If so, we would love to speak with you about our Mentor Care Officer position available at the Lint Center for National Security Studies. This is an extremely important role in our mission to foster and further the educational development and opportunities for the next generation of America’s Counterintelligence and National Security Workers. Our Mentor Care Officer should not only be passionate about this cause but also have the ability to track and coordinate with other mentors to ensure they are getting a positive experience from their mentee and overall satisfaction from the program.
If this sounds interesting, we want you to help propel our
mission and make an impact with people learning about national
security.
