The Higher Education Recruitment Consortium (HERC) is a coalition of 700+ colleges, universities, hospitals, research labs, government agencies, and related organizations committed to diversifying the higher education workforce. HERC provides resources, networking, and outreach programs to enhance member efforts to attract, hire, and retain diverse and qualified faculty, staff, and administrators. HERC also works with job seekers, particularly those who are historically underrepresented in the academic workforce, to find, transition into, and advance in, higher education careers.
