About the NPS ESP Program
The National Park Service Experienced Services Program (NPS ESP) is a unique partnership created to help solve the workforce issues facing government agencies. The experienced workers participating in the Program are referred to as ?Enrollees? and are not employees or contractors of the NEW Solutions or NPS.
Benefits under the NPS ESP Program
NPS ESP Enrollees benefit from the opportunity to keep technical skills current; to access new training opportunities; to engage in gainful project-based positions; and to undertake meaningful tasks using their experience and talent to contribute to the environment, the national economy, and their own financial security. These positions provide opportunities for extra income or temporary placement income.
Enrollees accrue sick leave and those that work 30 hours or more a week are offered premium paid medical coverage.
