Paid internships offered to Pinedale students

Posted

Pinedale High School and

Skyline Academy students have an opportunity

to learn job skill training and participate

in a paid internship with local businesses this

summer.

The Ready for the Workforce Program is facilitated

by Sublette County Chamber of Commerce

and Sublette BOCES. It is designed to

provide career and workforce readiness to high

school students and connect them with someone

in the community who is in a workforce

pathway or career they may be interested in.

As part of this program, students are required

to bring their completed resume to the job fair

scheduled at Pinedale High School on Friday,

May 3. An optional resume-writing workshop

is scheduled for Tuesday, April 30, at 6:30 p.m.

at Sublette BOCES.

Sponsoring businesses will schedule interviews

with intern applicants and announce

selections after May 24. Once the job fair, interview

and selection process is complete, students

will work with their internship provider to

schedule 60 hours of on-the-job work to complete

their internship anytime between June 10

and Aug. 16.

It is the student’s responsibility to work with

their employer to work out times that work best

for all parties. At the completion of the internship

– verified by the internship provider – the

student will receive a $500 scholarship and certificate

of completion

To apply for this program, complete the full

application at https://www.subletteboces.com/
