The Problem
 

​Philadelphia has an innumerable amount of education disparities. Some examples include:

  1. ​71% of fourth graders in Philadelphia are not reading at grade level

  2. Philly schools rank fourth from the bottom in reading of the 26 big-city districts

  3. 52% of adults in Philadelphia are functionally illiterate

  4. 4 affordable, after-school programs offer high-impact tutoring in Philadelphia

We are looking for motivated students who want to collaborate with industry leaders. ECP will develop students' consulting skills while also allowing them to combat education inequality. Members will undergo training on how to be consultants through our partnership with CaseBasix.com. They will then collaborate in teams of eight, strategizing and analyzing data for their client. No prior consulting experience is necessary.
