| As college students, some wish to have an exciting summer away from college, something that they can do to bring meaning to their lives, and the lives of others. With the Power Ministries College Internship, you can do that!!! |
| The College Internship program provides an opportunity for students to be directly involved in Disability Ministry. Each summer, up to eight interns are selected. In recent years, those students have come from various colleges and universities; majoring in such areas as Speech Pathology, Special Education, Elementary Education, Ministries and Music. Many have returned on succeeding years to serve more than one internship. |
| As an initial qualification, a student must have completed at least one year of college in good academic standing. Such an internship provides a tremendous practical learning experience for those preparing for disabilities-related careers. However, many have chosen to undertake such an opportunity for the unique challenge that it represents. |
| Comprehensive training is provided through a two-week training program. The first week takes place in a Christian Camp setting where the team of interns can become better acquainted, and then focus on the summer ahead. The second week brings preparation to the headquarters in New Albany, Indiana. Training sessions focus on the two phases of internship activity, Retreat experiences working directly with persons with disabilities; and Disabilities Awareness Education programs at Christian Camps and Vacation Bible Schools. |
| Once the intern training is complete, the participants go their separate ways to pursue their individual assignments. |
