Internship
1. Career Connections: Career related internships through the CCCTC Career Connections program are available to students who:
- Finish a CCCTC program
- Recommended by their CCCTC instructor
- Meet criteria regarding grades, attendance, service hours, and required High School tests. (See the CCPS Program of Studies for minimum requirements)
- Show aptitude, ability, and interest
Interested students need to meet with the Career Connections Coordinator to determine if they meet the required criteria to begin the application process. Student applications must also be approved by the principal. Parents/Guardians are expected to provide transportation.
NOTE: Students receive a grade which is recorded on their transcript.
2. Internships Available as part of Several Programs: Internship opportunities are available in Nursing, Nursing Assistant, Physical Rehabilitation, Teacher Academy, and Child Development & Early Education. Qualified students complete clinical or classroom preparation during the first semester of their program. Every effort is made to place students in internships during the second semester based on their performance, readiness, and available opportunities.
Because internships take place at community sites, students must meet specific requirements, including providing their own transportation. Also, for example, Academy of Health students need to complete TB and drug testing, and, for nursing placements, successfully passing state board requirements. For more details, visit the "What It Takes" section on the Academy of Health program page.
