EE is looking for a few dedicated high school students to serve as Interns in various areas within the EE organization during the Spring 2013 semester. This is a mentorship/service opportunity offering experience and development in the areas of leadership, problem-solving, planning and communication skills.
Students in the program will lead or co-lead an enrichment class or lead in an area of responsibility under the guidance and supervision of an adult mentor. Students in the program will meet weekly with their mentor for training, to review past activities, and to plan for upcoming activities. They will also serve a minimum of one hour weekly in their area of responsibility.
Participants will learn many new skills throughout the semester while gaining valuable experience and on-the-job training. At the end of the semester, students will come away with a letter of recommendation from their mentor and service hours that can be included on applications for college and employment. Students may also count their activities and service toward earning the Congressional Award if desired. http://www.congressionalaward.org/
