In addition to SENEDIA’s current cyber/IT and engineering internship programs, SENEDIA received a 2018 Real Jobs RI grant through the Rhode Island Department of Labor and Training to help military veterans explore career opportunities through meaningful civilian internships. We are looking for organizations interested in sponsoring internships for our veterans, as well as veterans who seek employment opportunities.Internships and interests may be in a number of employment sectors including: Engineering and Science, Technology, Professional Services, Business Services, Logistic Services, Manufacturing, Administrative Services, and the Trades. Working with the RI Office of Veterans Affairs, state academic institutions, and other state resources/companies to connect veterans to civilian career opportunities, SENEDIA is helping veterans leverage their unique set of skills, experiences and leadership abilities developed during their years in the military. Each internship involves 80 hours of service at a company, for which the veteran is paid a $1500 stipend by SENEDIA. Please contact Lee Silvestre at lsilvestre@senedia.orgfor more information. |
