Remote Work Student From Iowa Finds Success in a Hybrid Position

Addie Martinez

I started working at Big Brothers Big Sisters during the pandemic when much of our staff was already working remotely. Throughout the pandemic, our staff learned how to be flexible working from home, however when the office opened up and staff started returning to work, it became clear that we needed to set some guidelines for staff who choose to work remotely.

Our Executive Director suggested that staff who want to continue to have the flexibility to work from home, would need to complete the Certified Remote Work course through Utah State University. Because of this course, I will be able to work a hybrid schedule where I will have the ability to work in the office as well as at home.

Thank you!
