The Program Manager oversees all logistics of DEC’s Alaska-based learning vacation programs. They work closely in collaboration with all Directors and are an essential part of the DEC team. They schedule and coordinate all facets of each program itinerary, including meals, lodging, transportation, and activities.

In the summer, the Program Manager hires, trains, schedules, and supervises the Program Coordinators and Group Leaders.  During the winter, they help plan and prepare for the next summer season and beyond.

Furlough dates will be approved by the Executive Director and mutually agreed upon in the fall so that all staff may stagger and coordinate their furloughs as necessary.
