The internship will culminate in a special project to be completed by each intern. Training will be provided in all areas. We will help you make the most of your internship by working with you to identify your specific learning interests and natural talents, and to help you get school credit if desired. We look for cheerful, enthusiastic people who possess strong initiative and the ability to work independently. Relevant experience is helpful, but not necessary.
