DC Public Charter School Board

2014 Fall Internship Program

 

DC Public Charter School Board Internship Program is searching for high achieving college students, recent graduates, and graduate students in Washington, DC who are interested in learning more about DC charter schools and are committed to the mission of providing quality public school options for DC students and families.  Depending on the interns' interests, they have the opportunity to experience working in a variety of fields:

 

·         Data Management and Analysis

·         Finance and Operations

·         Communications and Social Media

·         Fundraising and Development

·         Human Capital Management

·         School Support and Education Policy

 

Through their work with PCSB, interns will gain a great deal of knowledge about the public education system in DC, the challenges it faces, and the charter school sector.  Learn more about PCSB here.

 

About the Internship

Fall 2014 Program Dates:  September 22, 2014 – December 5, 2014

 

During the Fall, interns are expected to contribute at least 15 hours/week of their time.  Exact days and times are determined in conjunction with the intern's manager.

 

In addition to working directly with our staff on engaging projects, interns benefit from a variety of professional development opportunities including participation in discussions on various topics in education and opportunities to network and learn about education policy by attending events in Washington, D.C.

         

While internships are unpaid, we are happy to work with you to satisfy any requirements your school has for receiving course credit.
