Intern Spotlight: Emily Wilkins, Office of the CEO, Summer Intern. "Celebration of diversity is deeply engrained in SFHP's culture. Recently, I joined SFHP's Hispanic Heritage Month planning committee. It has been nice to learn more about the cultural diversity in the Hispanic and Latine communities both globally and within my community. I feel much pride in bringing my Cuban heritage to the table as we work to recognize the joy and resilience experienced by Hispanic and Latine people throughout history. Pictures: 1. My grandparents (seated) with my great-grandmother in Havana, Cuba, 1959. 2. Me representing Cuba at my school's Latinx culture night, Fall 2023.” #SFHPInterns #WeAreSFHP #SFHPCareers

Black History and HBCU Talent! LISC is partnering with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) on an internship program that builds a diverse talent pipeline for CDFIs while offering paid professional experience to diverse undergraduate students of color. Learn more about the LISC HBCU Internship Program at https://lnkd.in/eZn3RTwG. View the link below to learn more about Sabrina Mohamed's internship experience!
Sabrina Mohamed, a senior at #HBCU Howard University, recently completed a 9-month paid internship with LISC, made possible by the support of the Citi Foundation. In this role, the political science major worked closely with LISC program experts to organize a small business development convening, conduct research on community violence intervention, and evaluate applicants for child care grants, among other projects. The work experience gave Mohamed a real taste of what it takes to make a positive impact on communities. “My favorite part was seeing how different local offices and communities had different approaches to similar issues. It really just emphasizes how important it is for us to support local initiatives.” Although her internship is over, Mohamed can still lean on LISC for support. She and other exiting HBCU interns now have access to an employment coach who can help fine-tune their resume writing, interviewing, and networking skills to find jobs in community development when they graduate. Now, that’s a great way to cultivate a diverse talent pipeline for our industry!

VTT Global was proud to participate in the 'National Dialogue on Reshaping and Realigning TVET Sector for a Resilient Economy', organized by NAVTCC. During the dialogue, we engaged in a group discussion on 'Economics of TVET-Supply Driven to Demand Driven'. Our focus was twofold: Nationally, we advocated for an advisory body linking TVET, the Chamber of Commerce, and industry sectors to tailor education to market needs, ensuring the graduates are ready for employment. We also stressed the importance of practical internships for real-world readiness. Internationally, we pushed for the necessity of certifications, enhancing the global recognition and mobility of the TVET graduates. This is a step forward in our commitment to not just educate, but to empower and integrate our youth effectively into the evolving job market. #Partnership #EconomicResilience #TVETTransformation #EducationForEmployment #StrategyDevelopment #VTTGlobal #NAVTCC #GIZ #BritishCounsil

New in The Journal of Child Life: Child Life Internship Readiness: Perspectives of Child Life Academics Brittany Wittenberg Camp, PhD, CCLS, CFLE, Kathryn Cantrell, PhD, CCLS, Cara Sisk, PhD, CCLS Child life academics and internship coordinators and supervisors are vital stakeholders in the student-to-professional pipeline because both perform unique roles in supporting students pursuing a child life career. This is the first study on child life internship readiness from the perspectives of child life academics. The results and discussion from this survey with child life academic professionals add to the conversation about the profession’s expectations for internship readiness. Study findings showcase the increasing delays and difficulties students experience obtaining a child life internship. Improved awareness, communication, and collaboration between these groups would be a strong first step in addressing the profession’s need to improve the documented job crisis in child life.
