Extension Services Consultants

NCWIT Extension Services Consultants (ESCs) are experts in NCWIT’s research-based recruitment and retention strategies, who help academic departments identify opportunities and challenges for increasing women’s enrollment and graduation in computing programs. The ESCs have a broad range of expertise in program evaluation, organizational change, computing education, and other relevant fields. Extension Services clients who desire more than the grant-funded services may engage their consultant for a fee. Any NCWIT member may also contact these professionals regarding consultation for a fee.
