summer
partnership
“This is
not your average internship!”
All YEK graduates are
eligible to apply for the summer partnership program until they reach
age 22. Each summer, area businesses partner with YEK to provide unique
on-the-job learning experiences. Similar to an internship, the
partnerships provide Alumni with networking opportunities and insight
into the various industries involved. Each partnership is different, and
therefore the activities and time commitments vary, so please see below
for more details and then apply for your favorites! |
