It is with great enthusiasm that ePathways announces the next Internship Expo to be held Tuesday, November 1st at NOAH’s Event Venue in Lake Mary. This event will connect students to employers interested in hosting interns in spring of 2017. Our goal is to increase our employer partnerships for spring to maximize learning opportunities for students.
SCPS ePathways is actively seeking 50-100 employers interested in partnering with the district to provide students with authentic workplace experiences that allow students to apply the skills and knowledge developed in the classroom to the real world of work. Employers interested in supporting workplace learning commit to providing 133 hours of paid or unpaid work to a high school student in the spring of 2017 (January-May). Business partners are supported by district administrators who facilitate the internship by conducting site visits, communicating with parents and schools.
If you would like to participate in the next Internship Expo, please complete the intern request form: https://goo.gl/forms/
Inviting interns into the workplace is beneficial for both students and employers as we work together to develop the talent pipeline within our community.
