Experienced Services Program

expertise to address short-term needs, unanticipated workloads, and new initiatives.The Experienced Services Program provides a cost-effective recruitment opportunity to obtain the services of non-Federal, experienced workers aged 55 and older. Through agreements with eligible nonprofit organizations, the NPS will be able to recruit and utilize the services of these workers on a project-specific basis to enhance its capacity to achieve its mission, goals, and objectives. Skilled and experienced older Americans, including veterans, will have the opportunity to put their talents and experience to use on a part-time to full-time basis. Enrollment in the program will not impact the retirement benefits of retired federal employees. The use of private non-profit organizations aligns with many of the Department of the Interior goals for fostering better relationships with the communities it serves and increasing the efficiency and effectiveness of NPS programs.
