About The Position

The Education Program Manager independently manages and optimizes education programs, applying in-depth expertise to deliver measurable outcomes and lead cross functional projects within Fluke’s North America Education Partnership initiative — including the student discount program and other targeted offerings that drive early-in-career engagement. This role ensures program performance through strategic planning, operational excellence, and regional partnership development. Reporting to the Manager, Education Strategy & Partnerships, you will serve as the primary point of contact for program inquiries, manage regional partnerships, and lead operational excellence for education events and campaigns.
