Internships
In addition to career exposure--accomplished through the Career Exploration Series--our students also need valuable engagement opportunities, like internships and job-shadowing opportunities. These experiences allow our scholars to grow professionally and test out a new career interest.
If your institution would like to provide our scholars with internships or job-shadowing opportunities, contact Alex Gagnon, Career Programs Associate, at agagnon@chicagoscholars.org or 312-784-3306.
