Students are chosen by an interview process to participate in the peer counselor program. Students are trained in communication skills, confidentiality requirements and leadership skills to empower fellow students in problem solving, decision-making and coping strategies. Peer Counselors are a branch of the counseling office and assist in various counseling activities. Internships are paid or unpaid work experiences that take what you learn in the classroom into the world of work. The program allows students to gain college credit for their work experience.
Employers look for employees who have both education and related work experience.
Students must have 30 hours of college credit to apply for the internship program. You may apply in the Counseling Office with Sue Ann Rodgers, Wilkin 206. Several of the internship opportunities are listed below. There is no fee for this inventory. The Counseling Center offers current information on careers through the Chronicle Career System and a Career Library.
