Work 4 Change Internship Course

Making a commitment to making a difference!

The Work4Change program provides students with the unique opportunity to integrate socially responsible leadership and civic engagement through service-learning within both an academic leadership course and an internship at a local community agency.

Are you interested in gaining practical work experience?
Are you looking for ways to engage with the community to address important issues?
Are you ready to develop your socially responsible leadership skills through active learning?
Are you interested in putting your passions to work?
Are you interested in developing a relationship with other student change agents on campus?
Are you looking for assistance with identifying an internship experience?

· Participants will take part in an internship experience during the Fall 2014 semester.

Staff will work with you to find an internship experience exploring socially responsible leadership and your personal career goals.  Learn how to build and polish your resume and take advantage of the resources and networks of local communities.

Have you developed your leadership style?

Work4Change students will learn about asset-based community development, service-learning, leadership in the workplace, and leadership for social change while enrolled in EDCP318Z in the Fall semester (Tuesdays from 3-5pm).

Students will delve into various leadership styles, practices, and ideas through their course work to develop their own ideas and leadership style and apply these to their internship sites.
