What You’ll Do

You will work remotely to help maintain homeschooling-related information within the Scoolendar platform. This includes entering, updating, and keeping records accurate so families and internal teammates can use the system easily.

• Coordinate with the team using online tools and manage tasks independently.

Who This Is For

Requirements

• Strong typing ability and a careful eye for detail.
