NOW HIRING!
Life Lab is expanding nationwide, and we’re looking for enthusiastic Challenge Coaches for our Student-Core and Student-Faith programs to bring Life Lab to their communities. We provide the curriculum, training, student registration, and ongoing support, so you can focus on inspiring students as they build confidence, solve real-life challenges, and form lasting friendships.
Why Become a Life Lab Challenge Coach?
- Teachers and former teachers are an excellent fit – but a teaching degree is not required.
- You do not have to teach both Core and Faith programs – you can choose one or both!
- You don’t need to create lesson plans. We provide the challenges, materials, and structure for you.
- You don’t need to build a business from scratch. Life Lab gives you the program, resources, and support to get started.
- A great Life Lab Coach is someone who enjoys working with kids and is connected to families in their community.
- That might mean you’re involved with homeschool groups, parent groups, sports teams, church groups, public school families, youth organizations, or other local communities where kids and parents already gather.
- If you’re encouraging, dependable, comfortable leading a small group, and excited about helping kids build confidence and real-world skills, Life Lab may be a great fit.
