Shaver's Creek is a member of the Global Network of Environmental Education Centers and is currently involved in fostering environmental programming in central Europe. Program Areas Interns become an integral part of the staff and are encouraged to participate in all aspects of the center's operation. A two-week orientation and training period is followed by seasonal program opportunities in both a day and resident setting. Interns work with all ages, preschool to adult, and with all varieties of groups, including schools, private organizations, clubs, and the general public. The different program areas provide each intern an opportunity to work in planning, delivering, and evaluating the center's educational and recreational programming.
Interns have the opportunity to extend their commitment to multiple seasons.
Average workweek is 45 hours. Eligibility Specifics Successful candidates have a strong desire to teach and share their knowledge and enthusiasm for the natural world. We welcome applications from undergraduates, graduates, and those seeking a change in careers. A background in education or the natural sciences is helpful but not necessary. International students are encouraged to apply, and the center can assist with the J-1 visa application process.
