Manufacturing is the # 1 push in our district, but vary few students believe they want to go into this career pathway

Helpful if we can have a list of partners who will be working with our district; my list seems to have changed this year vs the past 4 years. Placements I counted on were "not available" for my students this year.

support with district and admin to transition from "work program" to a true internship experience

# data[].attributes.body
We ask all of our internship partners to create an internship description. We use the descriptions to make a job board. Internship students look at job board, find opportunities they like, contact the employer/mentor and request an interview. Organic process, we are matchmakers.

Some students want internships in low-wage jobs and we want to ensure they are in experiences that are high-skill, high-wage and in-demand careers.

How to wrap up--what are schools doing with students post experience, if anything?

I observe the students during the semester. Getting the mentors to find a time that works for them is difficult.

We have gone back and forth with requiring an application for our Internship Program. We landed on using Tableau data to find students who have completed or nearly completed all pathway courses to market our Internship program to.

We are starting a screening for next year where students need to fill out a survey about themselves. We are highly encouraging students to have a perquisite course in the subject area they are interested in.

Pathway Coordinator(or whatever buzz word it needs to be called to get it approved)

Counselors need to fully understand what our program offers to encourage the students to take Internship as their capstone course.
