Overview:
The Ames Associate Program is a voluntary/unpaid program designed for individuals who wish to donate their services to NASA-Ames Research Center for the mutual benefit of Ames and themselves. Ames Associates perform services for Ames without any compensation, (directly or indirectly). This program also permits the Associate to utilize unique Ames facilities and work in their chosen field with experienced and eminent research scientists. Ames Associates are normally United States Citizens or Permanent Residents (registered immigrant aliens).
 
  • The Human Capital office is not responsible to find volunteer services for you and cannot solicit your service.
  • The work must be in an area which is not considered advanced and/or sensitive, and access to such information is not required in order to perform the work.
  • The Ames Associate term usually ranges from two months to a year. Associateships must be renewed annually.
  • Work should be scheduled during regular duty hours. Ames Associates may not work prior to approval and processing by the Human Resources Division.
  • The Sponsor's organization will be responsible for any costs related to the Ames Associates work, including allocated service pools, etc.
  • If an Ames Associate is injured or dies while in duty status, the Associate or his/her survivors are entitled to receive compensation for medical care from the Federal government to the same extent and in the same manner as those employed by the civil service (in accordance with the Federal Employees Compensation Act, 5 U.S.C. 8101, et seq) provided both the Associate and the Chief of Human Resources Division (or the Technical Monitor) signed the Memorandum Agreement before the accident.
  • An Ames Associate sponsor must be a NASA Federal employee, and the sponsorship must be approved by the cognizant Organization Director.
