Internship Opportunities
work based learning
The CTE internship program allows selected students to obtain real-world work experience in a field related to their career interests. Students are exposed to diverse situations and hands-on tasks which help with career and post-secondary planning, not to mention the addition of valuable work experience to their resume. Because of our strong relationships with local businesses we have been able to successfully place hundreds of students in a wide variety of internships throughout the county. Our CTE internship Program is application-based and all students are thoroughly screened to ensure the “right fit” and the highest level of success. Students complete 135 hours over the course of the semester and earn one academic credit. Students are monitored throughout their internship experience by the Career Development Coordinator and are required to complete meaningful activities such as a Learning Plan and the Resume Writing Workshop.
Eligibility Requirements
Approximately 12 students a semester are selected from each high school to participate in an internship. Interested students must complete an application which can be obtained by their school counselor or Amber Falise, Career Development Coordinator, [email protected] or (336) 651-7009. |
