Quality
NAA OST Job Quality
The National AfterSchool Association’s (NAA) OST Job Quality Standards provide a research-based framework for improving job quality in out-of-school time programs. These standards help organizations enhance workforce development, recruitment, and retention.
Improving Workforce Excellence
The National AfterSchool Association’s OST Job Quality Standards, released in June 2024, provide a standard structure for defining and discussing “good jobs.”
The Standards ground the conversation in the available empirical evidence demonstrating how job quality relates to worker outcomes and outline effective practices that support workforce development — including recruitment and retention — and workforce stability by promoting high-quality, equitable jobs.
