Who are we?

The Nexel Collaborative is a community of forward-thinking college and university leaders who recognize the value of bringing adults back to school as they approach the end of their traditional careers. Founded in 2020, the nonprofit alliance promotes and supports the development of midlife transition programs at postsecondary schools worldwide; programs intended to help adults rediscover their purpose at this pivotal stage of life.

Eligibility:

Membership is open to postsecondary institutions considering or offering a midlife transition program and who support the mission, vision, and values of the Collaborative. Limited membership is also open to advocates (alumni, ambassadors, and others) connected with a school or program who want to help these types of programs grow more widely.

NOTE: Membership is by application only. Please return to this page after filling in this questionnaire or contacting bonnie@thenexel.org to confirm the correct tier.

Annual Dues:

Institutional tiers are based on participant program fees (actual or anticipated costs to enroll in your program) and are renewable every 12 months on a rolling/quarterly basis.

NOTE: These tiers were established by the Nexel Advisory Committee in 2023 to encourage broad participation and to democratize the movement. We invite you to contact us with any questions about membership and/or the appropriate tier for your situation.

Please note:  There are other options to pay dues, i.e via by check or ACH/wire. We will gladly put together an invoice so that you can make checks payable to “Community Initiatives – The Nexel Collaborative” and mail to: PO Box 45515, San Francisco, CA 94145-0515.

Thank you!
