Embed Size (px)

DESCRIPTION

A culminating work-based learning experience or internship creates a clear connection between academy courses and business. This hands-on session will guide participants through a step-by-step process to complete the Internship Assessment, required for NAF SCAS. Participants will enter supervisors, track progress and review internship assessment results into the SCAS database. Expert academy internship coordinators will share how setting clear targets for foundational, applied workplace and self-management skills as well as the contextual knowledge contribute to college and career success and connect learning with the world of work.
