Internships
are an exciting way to gain professional job training and work
experience. Internships at Wainwright House provide students with
meaningful on-the-job training and experience working in a nonprofit
organization.
Interns will receive training, and as their skill and understanding of
the job responsibilities increases, they will be given greater
responsibility and flexibility to define projects. Interns are expected
to be highly motivated and able to work independently. Internships are
non-paid positions. Specific internships are described below.
An internship at the Wainwright House is a prearranged, structured
learning experience scheduled within a specific time frame. The
experience must be relevant to the intern's academic and professional
goals. An internship is performed under the direct supervision of
Wainwright House staff. Internships, for the most part, are arranged
individually.
