LTW Student Intern
The Home for Little Wanderers

The NDSS and Wediko Internship Program is a specialized program funded by the Department of Education's Learning to Work Program. The purpose of this program is to promote independence and work skills while cultivating a personal and professional sense of responsibility. The application process mirrors that of a real-world job.

Interns will be required to meet in-school grade, behavior, punctuality, and attendance expectations. Teachers will be asked for recommendations before the student is hired. Interns will also be required to spend a portion of their time on career-readiness activities in LTW seminars. Students who complete the internship will receive a certificate and letter of reference from Wediko for future job opportunities.

Out-of-school internships will take place in community business/organizations outside of school hours, and work will be supervised by Wediko's Internship Coordinator, who will conduct regular site visits. It is the responsibility of the intern to arrive to work on time, perform their job to the best of their ability and with professionalism, and report any concerns to the Internship Coordinator.

Remote internships will consist of assisting school and Wediko staff with administrative tasks, co-facilitating activities, collaborating with staff around school events and initiatives, and other tasks. $15 per hour is offered.
