Adult, Professional and Higher Education List of Possible Internships

Congratulations on beginning your internship semester! The following is a list of possible internship sites for APHE students for the Education Student Services Center.  The list is comprised mainly of sites where previous APHE students have interned along with some other sites surrounding Cleveland State University. The purpose of this list is to act as a starting point for APHE students entering into their internship semester by providing an overview of the internship experience and providing contact information for the different sites. 

We hope that you find this list helpful as you begin the journey to finding an internship site that will provide you with an enriched learning experience. Please keep in mind that this is not an all-encompassing list and that there are a variety of paths to take for your APHE internship experience. You are solely responsible for reaching out to the point of contact at your chosen internship site to determine what steps need to be taken in order for you to obtain the internship you are interested in. 

When determining where to complete your internship please keep the following guidelines in mind: 

  • The purpose of internship is to provide students with an opportunity to gain additional skills that will allow them to move on to the next level of career development and add new skills to the students resume. 
  • Students should attempt to match 3 skills that they would like to acquire with a site that can provide the necessary learning experience. ​
  • Students are required to complete 120 hours over the course of a semester (approximately 6-8 hours a week). This includes project hours. If you are still having difficulty choosing a site for your internship speak with your advisor. They can help you outline your goals and suggest appropriate sites.
