NOTE: This position has been hired for the 2018 Summer season, but if you are interested, we expect to have another position for Summer 2019!

We're excited to announce that we're seeking a paid, part-time intern for the Summer of 2018 to assist the VEOC with our annual conference on June 8th, our annual census of Vermont employee-owned companies, and some marketing and outreach work. The position will start May 29th and run a total of 200 hours over the course of the summer, ending no later than August 31, and will pay $15/hour.

We're excited to be partnering with the Cooperative Fund of New England and the Center for an Agricultural Economy to present our FREE "Selling to the Employees: A Path to Ownership Succession" seminar in Hardwick from 4:30-6pm on Wednesday, 1/24! The event will cover the ESOP and worker co-op models, including a discussion of financing options for low-wealth employee groups seeking to purchase a business from a departing founder.

Expanding on the success we've had for the past two years organizing Employee Ownership Month celebrations in the Upper Valley, for 2017 we're expanding to three events in different parts of the state: Montpelier, Windsor, and Burlington! These gatherings are always a great opportunity to meet folks from different employee owned companies and learn what they're doing to build strong cultures of ownership.
