Academic & Career
Center
Steps to Establishing a Credit-Earning Internship
- Meet
with a member of the Academic & Career Center Staff to explore
the many internship options available in all fields. Let staff
direct you to valuable resources not readily accessible on the
Internet.
-
Develop an outstanding resume that will attract the eye of a potential
employer. Make an appointment with the Academic & Career Center
to have your rough draft critiqued or submit on-line at resumes@wvwc.edu.
-
Contact potential employers for an interview, once a job offer
is obtained you are ready to begin the process to obtain credit.
-
Download the Application
for Individualized Instruction
or pick up a copy at the A & CC.
-
Ask a member of your major department to serve as a faculty sponsor.
He/she will help you develop a required set of learning objectives
and evaluation criteria, and will assign the final grade.
-
Complete the Application for Individualized Instruction in coordination
with your faculty sponsor and your site supervisor.
-
Obtain the appropriate signatures (Student, Faculty Sponsor, Field
Supervisor, and Department Chair).
-
Submit to the Director of Individualized Instruction for final
approval two weeks before the semester in which the internship
will occur.
-
Ensure that you are registered for the appropriate number of internship
hours under LCT 201 (201-01-02-03 etc.).
-
A copy of the form will be returned to you, your faculty sponsor
and the field supervisor, and the original will be filed in the
Academic & Career Center.
-
The field supervisor recommends a grade for the internship. However,
the final grade is determined by the faculty sponsor. He/she considers
the field supervisor's recommendation and your demonstrated success
in meeting the mutually agreed upon learning objectives outlined
in the Application for Individualized Instruction.
